if you're not too picky, you could get this pretty well tailored in a couple seasons. you'll have to keep an eye on it if you don't use a larger sample size. if it swings more than .0020 you may need some slight adjustments (being a bit more liberal than above due to increased errors relative to my testing). use a restored backup of hte league you intend to use.. so you know it will translate and work.
increasing errors will definitely accomplish what you want. don't be afraid to do +50% / 1.500 LTM and such for some positions if the results warrant it. at the fielding rate you gave, you will have alot more errors.... spread it out how you want it.
an idea that may not work:
will auto-calc, after importing a historical year that should match your target Fielding average, set the errors appropriately? if so, take a screen shot... then another screenshot once you re-type it all in with new errors LTM from auto-calc remaining. you'd probably want to re-import the year you *actually want things to mimic to be safe, then re-type whatever deviates from screenshot.
EDIT:
if you are pre-2016, i think no matter what, things slowly change a bit. even if you import from "2050." expect it to contine to rise into the 90's to 00's before leveling off. you may have to just slowling increase errors a bit each year or a chunk every 3-5 years etc.

Many thanks for you taking your time to help me out.
Much appreciate it.
Hope I can repay your generosity... problem is I will never know as much as you do about the game... I'm a dunce with computers and not really knowledgeable about OOTPB when it comes to setting up leagues.
I have set up only 3 solo league in my 14 years on this Forum... don't do it often enough to really learn the game... it's always a struggle for me to set up my league and I'm so nitpicky that I want the stats to be as close as is reasonable to the era I want to play.
I'm gonna take your advice... set up my league... then copy it and run test leagues with the fictional players and see what results I get.
I did modify the Position Modifiers... increased them by 10% across the board and got no change... the next time I will test it with a 100% increase across the board and that should very noticeable if the Position Modifiers are really effecting the game.
