If you're like me, you started simming historicals without really knowing much about the players. Sure, you knew about Cobb, Wagner, Ruth, Hornsby, etc, but you didn't really know anything about Wid Conroy or Kid Elberfield.
baseballlibrary.com is a great website with short, well written player bios that give you a little more than a name and some numbers.
