Pure speculation here but a six team league would be sensitive to player creation and development variables. Do you have a glut of good hitters at AAA and AA? Is it possible that hitters are ready before pitchers and the pitchers catch up and pass them in the majors.

Having said that a 4.21 ERA seems high for a 0.248 BA . Check double play rates.

FWIW
The stats are very consistent for the last 15 years. I'd rather move the fences than mess with the modifiers. (That's how it COULD be done in the real majors, although I guess it could be said that changing the modifiers is another way of lowering/raising the mound and/or altering the strike zone.
