Marcus I think I may have the solution.
Take the 2018 and 2010 and simply divide the two.
batting average would be around .2535
hr would be 1.08 per game
k would be around 7.60
interestingly walks would stay around the same 3.23
ect
Thus it would be hard for anyone to really tell it is not fully 2018 numbers which they may expect.
Keeping the 2010 base values though to things like stolen bases, sacrifices, sflys etc would mean the SB totals could rise if anyone wants to run that would be in the game
So my suggestion is dont PICK a year per sey...but sort of massage numbers around what you might think would be a good overall set of values to have, while keeping the basic parameters of the modern (ie semi boring version) of baseball we have now
