While the 2009 BSL offseason began a month ago, Major League Soccer's playoffs recently finished and so begins its offseason. There is bound to be plenty of player movement before 2010 kicks offs. From a fantasy perspective, the addition of the Philadelphia Union (my team had the name first) gives BSL operators another roster to take advantage of. Will the expansion squad have some scoring threats? So far Philly has already acquired Alejandro Moreno who was used in the BSL in 2009.Other news released is that Brian McBride will be back in a Fire uniform for 2010. David Beckham will return to the Galaxy, but not until after the World Cup, which means August, which means he'll only have value for playoff teams and Majors Cup teams in 2010. What about Robbie Findley, has his stock risen after the offensive display he showed in the MLS playoffs? What about Guillermo Barros-Schelotto? The Crew have asked him to take a pay cut, so will he return with a different MLS team or perhaps return to Argentina.
Yeah, the offseason moves are really going to determine whether I use my DP or want to trade it for a draft pick.
ReplyDeleteThere's three guys on my roster I'd use it on but I'll have to see what happens and who else might be in the league by draft time.
Same here.
ReplyDeleteThere's a couple of guys on my roster that I'm keeping an eye on to see what happens to them.
I'm curious to see what Philly's roster looks like once they're finished.
My gut tells me that the Redbulls will sign someone big to promote their new stadium. It won't be Henri like all the rumors being spill out, but I seriously doubt they won't do anything. Someone is coming.
ReplyDeleteI have two players I want to keep and might trade with Union S.C. for his DP slot, but will wait until I am sure they are both staying where they are.
Most teams will wait until a new collective bargining agreement is made before they sign new players. If they raise the salary cap that would be huge.
