Note that as long as someone is not useless at a position, like an outfielder that's good at RF but has no experience at LF, you can play them there a little and they won't ruin every game or anything.

You can have someone trained up about halfway by the end of spring training if you start him every day, and of course he has some ability. Like bobbyraz said if someone has no catcher arm/ability they'll never be a C, and if someone can't turn a DP they'll never be a 2B. Also I think I read somewhere a lefty will never develop at infield positions other than 1B.
