For batting, post #5 gives a good rundown of the main things you should be looking at. Pitching is a little more tricky, because a lot of the stats are influenced by the defense behind the pitcher, or, in the case of Wins, even the offense. HRA, BBs and Ks are three that you can safely evaluate a pitcher on though, as the defense has no effect on those. Fielding is really tough as it's harder to represent skill statistically. I usually just look at ratings for that.

As for what figures are good for those stats, that's a very relative thing, based on your league settings. Look at your league leaders and league averages and compare to those.
