Taken from the OOTP Manual.

Position Modifiers
Position Modifiers affect the defensive aspect of the game. By adjusting these modifiers, you can alter the impact of different positions on your league, defensively. Each position has a range and error component. Increasing the Range modifier will increase the range of players at that position, putting them in a position to make more plays. Increasing the Error component increases the number of errors at that position, causing a decrease in fielding percentage. As usual, all values are relative to modern day professional baseball.

I increased the Error number 10% at each position and got lower league fielding averages.

I had to do it several times to get each league to the fielding average I wanted.

I did not change the Range numbers.
