How many goals does Buddle have to score to get a look from Bradley?
Wingert, fantastic addition.
Are Torres and Orozco still committed to their clubs at this time?
Wow…. what a mix.
Kinda scrapin’ the bottom of the barrel with some of these guys, me thinks. But I really like that there are so many solid MLS players on the list - Busch, Bornstein, Wingert, Gaven, Rogers, Cooper (FINALLY!), Rolfe.
But Franklin? Seriously?!
Wow….
