  • Explains the new signing, plus Ozzie is back. Unfortunately none of the other 3 u22 initiative players are worth anything at the moment. Mosquera sent back, Lopez no value, and Sosa can’t stay healthy, and when he is can’t string together good performances. Sucks to lose Ibarra to roster rules. The U22 initiative is supposed to incentivize teams to take flyers on young players, but they failed to build in a mechanism for when they pan out and a team is stuck with the contract. MLS may do well to add a buyout specifically for U22 initiative players.



  • I love Gutman, but I think he’s lost a step since his injury. He’s completely disruptive when he goes forward and gets in the box, but his defense mistakes have cost us. Overall this is probably a good move by the FO. Unload an underperforming player to enable a defensive midfielder signing with an international slot. I hope Gutman can find his form and success at Colorado.
