One thing you can do is download the OOTP 11 demo, turn off scouting and check the ratings that way (since they're editable in the desktop version of the game).

A simple guideline, though, is:

1B requires a non-horrific rating at all 4 infield ratings.

2B requires high double play rating, followed by range and glove ability. Arm is the least important for 2B.

3B requires arm mostly, with glove and range being relatively important, as well.

SS requires every skill to be at a high rating.

LF requires every skill at a passable level.

CF focuses more on range and glove than arm.

RF is more on arm than anything else.

Every time a player plays a game at a position, they get 1 point in their experience in that position (can only be seen in the editor, so it can't be accessed in iOOTP). Experience is capped at 200, and a player's experience rating combines with a certain formula that is put in place per position to make their rating at that position. If a player has high infield ratings, they could already be around a 15 or 16 as a first baseman even with a 50 or 60 in experience.
