Maybe try to follow the league news, especially the player of the weeks, etc, as that should point out the best players a lot and eventually it should sink in.

Regardless, it's got to be easier than what us fictional league fans have to get used to. Somehow we usually end up managing. And on top of that I'm using Scandinavian name files so I can't even pronounce half the names, not alone remember them!
What's a good way to ease into learning what makes a good ballplayer a good ball player? Should I just focus on one or two statistics for a while? Just continue to immerse myself into baseball?
