I suggest one of the mid-80's years - 1984 thru 1986 - where you get good representation of both complete games and saves. You can view these stats here -

How you do this in OOTP has changed over the years and I haven't tried it with OOTP 18, all I can comment on is OOTP 17: To do this, you'd need to edit the era_ballparks.txt file that exists in your ...
Out of the Park Developments/OOTP Baseball 18/Database folder. (The best way to edit this file -
after making a backup! - is to open it in Excel, make all of your changes, save it as a .csv, and then change the file extension to .txt.)
Again, I haven't tried this in OOTP 18; this is just the way it worked in OOTP 17 (and back in earlier versions the process was different). So definitely make backups and try this as a test first.
And stay tuned for posts from others that may correct or add to what I just wrote
