Dayton Moron Likes Shitty White Sox Players

Previously, I pointed out that the Orioles have been a graveyard for washed up Cubs players in recent years. Kansas City is looking to be the White Sox equivalent (Moore has made more trades with Kenny Williams (now 5) than any other GM during his brief reign as GM of the Royals). According to MLBTradeRumors, the Royals are close to signing "a speedy outfielder" who is speculated to be Scott Podsednik. That would put the following ex-White Sox on the 25-man roster since Moore took over as GM in 2006:

C-Miguel Olivo
1B-Ross Gload
2B-Chris Getz*
3B-Josh Fields*
INF-Tony Graffanino
OF-Scott Podsednik*
OF-Brian Anderson*
SP-Kip Wells
RP-Horacio Ramirez
RP-David Riske
*-added this offseason

From this list, I see a bunch of utility players and DFA candidates. Is it possible to build a 25-man roster of White Sox-turned-Royals players since 2002? We've already got an infield.

If you make this a revolving door system and include the crap Kenny Williams has taken from the Royals, you could also add the following players to our hypothetical team:

3B-Mark Teahen
CL-Mike MacDougal
CL-Octavio Dotel
RP-Jimmy Gobble
RP-Andy Sisco
RP-D.J. Carrasco
C-Paul Phillips

We still need 4 SP, 3 more OF and a DH.
