Unfortunately, the creation modifiers won't be of any use because your league-wide ratings heavily depend upon what vesion you started your league. I'd recommend you first decide how many rounds you want, get averages and distribution threads for your leagues current ratings, then run a test league through at least 17 seasons (the length of time to completely "even out" after the initial creation players are gone) with the desired number of rounds and check a) actual league totals and b) distribution and averages of ratings. The easiest way to do this is by exporting the players to a CSV file and using Excel. Then make creation adjustments to a new test league, do it again, and see what you get. It's all trial and error, unfortunately. Once you get the right blend, you'll be able to seamlessly adapt your old league to the longer draft.

My league totals - which are also relative to the ratings, but perhaps a bit more useful - are as follows:

AB:166234
H:45000
2B:9750
3B:928
HR:5458
BB:15806
HBP:1890
SO:29750
ABIP: .302
