I know others have tried. In this concept, what is better (either your opinion or if you've tried):
1. A ballpark with the minimum possible offense - to make your team's defense give the opponent the worst possible venue to hit the ball in play...
2. A ballpark with the maximum possible offense - to make it so everyone gives up tons of runs, but by gum, your players will have an advantage snagging more hits away from the opponents than they might from you.
Also, has anyone experimented with low Stuff/High control pitchers to maximize balls in play?

The best might be neutral (1.000) hitting since your defense is so good, but minimize homers (0.90) since their defense range can't stop home runs.
Control pitchers seems better for your team since there is no defense for walks. Good movement pitchers generate more ground balls as well.
Feel free to change it up in different seasons (weeks).
