Some I haven't seen mentioned yet:

Johnny Marcum, 1933-39, .265/5/70, 533 at-bats, 65-63 4.66 ERA
Chubby Dean, 1936-43, .274/3/128, 1047 at-bats 30-46 5.08 ERA
Fred Hutchinson, 1939-53, .263/4/83, 650 at-bats 95-71 3.73 ERA
Dizzy Trout, 1939-57, .213/20/110, 961 at-bats 170-161 3.23 ERA
Erv Brame, 1928-32, .306/8/75, 396 at-bats 52-37 4.76 ERA
Bucky Walters, 1931-50, .243/23/234,1966 at-bats 198-160 3.30 ERA

Chubby Dean played a few years as a first-baseman at the start of his MLB career, and Bucky Walters started out as a third-baseman in the majors. Walters hit .376 with 16 homers and 32 doubles in 362 at-bats for Mission in the Pacific Coast League in 1933.

Brandon Backe, 2003-09, .256/4/16, 133 at-bats, 31-29 5.23 ERA
Bullet Joe Bush, 1912-28, .253/7/140, 1239 at-bats 196-184 3.51 ERA
Yovani Gallardo, 2007-18, .201/12/42, 427 at-bats 121-101 4.06 ERA
Zack Greinke, 2004-23, .225/9/35, 521 at-bats 223-145 3.45 ERA
Mike Hampton, 1993-10, .246/16/79 725 at-bats 148-115 4.06 ERA
Jack Harshman, 1948-60, .179/21/65 424 at-bats 69-65 3.50 ERA

Jack Harshman, who is second only to Babe Ruth in home-run hitting prowess as a pitcher, was a first-baseman in the minor leagues, and hit 47 home runs with 141 RBI for Nashville in the Southern Association in 1951.

Don Larsen, 1953-67, .242/14/72, 596 at-bats 81-91 3.78 ERA
Jim Tobin, 1937-45, .230/17/102 796 at-bats 105-112 3.44 ERA
Jimmy Zinn, 1919-29 .283/2 /15 120 at-bats 13-16 4.30 ERA
Carlos Zambrano, 2001-12 .238/24/71 693 at-bats 132-91 3.66 ERA
Dave Ferris, 1945-50 .250/1 / 52 372 at-bats 65-30 3.64 ERA
Jack Scott, 1916-29 .275/5 /73 680 at-bats 103-109 3.85 ERA

I'm surprised no one mentioned Don Larsen yet.

Over Jimmy Zinn's minor league career, which lasted from 1915 to 1939 and was spent mostly in the high minors, he had a 295-197 record, and 747 hits in 2482 at-bats for a .301 batting average with 44 home runs.

An honorable mention is Frank Shellenback. He spent just two years in the majors, but won 315 games against just 189 losses in his minor league career, all spent in the high minors. He hit 73 home runs in his minor league career, including an incredible 55 over the seven-year period from 1927 to 1933.
