    Numbers released today. Gazdag is a real surprise, wonder if his contract is back loaded? Elliot is a steal. Ilsinho got paid for past work.

    See Tannenwald's article in The Inquirer for details.

    Union total payroll only higher than Red Bulls and Colorado this year. About half of what Galaxy and Atlanta putting out.

    Stuart Findlay seems like a very nice guy, but $425K?! — while Elliott is at $340K & Mbaizo at only $90K? Ernst & Albright have generally done well with a tight budget, but this one seems like an unforced error.

    Relative importance to the team's on-field production and success does not necessarily correlate to a roster's salary hierarchy.

    I imagine Jay Sugarman would point to that list a evidence that his “moneyball” budgetary approach is a solid, viable strategy. Last season’s shield and this year’s so-far-so-good performance have somewhat swayed me, but I still believe just one quality, expensive player (like Reynoso last night) could result in a title.

    If they could get a player like Ruidiaz.....they would be serious title contenders. The Defense, aside from last night has been solid for two years running. They need that one player that can have moments of brilliance when nothing else is working.
