Cesar Tovar - Twins outfielder who played all three fields regularly, plus more than a season's worth of games at 2nd and 3rd - and some DHing late in his career. And of course he played all 9 positions in a game in 1968. He was also the only player not named Carl Yastrzemski to receive an AL MVP vote in 1967.
Hoyt Wilhelm, pitcher. 21 years in MLB, pitched for 9 different clubs. I identify him most as a Baltimore Oriole, and also threw one nasty knuckleball. Was the first pitcher to get 200 saves, and still pitched in the big leagues to age 49! HOFer!

Charles and Joe Yingling were brothers. Charles played one game at shortstop for the 1894 Phillies and Joe pitched 3 innings for the 1886 Washington Nationals.

Ok, how about Don Zimmer? Infielder, 12 seasons in MLB, starting with them Bums. Loved his biography!...
Bill Lee used to refer to Don as "the gerbil". No love lost between them.
Bobby Allison - left fielder with the Senators/Twins from '58-'70. Saw him hit two out of Fenway one day when I was a kid. I think Jimmy Hall and Killebrew also homered that day. Needless to say, the Sox got hammered. Minnesota had a few good power hitters back in the 60s.
And don't give me any of that "I've just seen a lot" business.
