This appears to have slipped through the cracks on the scorecard thread: Chivas USA announced on Friday (April 30) that it has acquired Costa Rican midfielder/forward José Macotelo on loan from Puntarenas F.C. in Costa Rica. http://www.soccer365.com/mls/story_30410182048.php Everything OK with the keeper of the thread? Should someone else add all of these updates to the ongoing list?

Leandre Griffit has NOT signed for Columbus yet. He's agreed to a deal, but it's not offcial yet because he's been working on getting some sort of international transfer certificate, plus the Crew needs to make room for him somehow. The latest update from Shawn Mitchell's blog: http://blog.dispatch.com/crew/2010/05/hejduk_no_thoughts_of_retireme.shtml
It looks like this is all but official if there's going to be a roster announcement made soon. I'll leave it on the list.
FC DALLAS SIGNS COLOMBIAN STRIKER MILTON RODRIGUEZ FRISCO, Texas (May 13, 2010) -Colombian striker Milton Rodriguez will join FC Dallas July 15 when the summer transfer window opens, pending receipt of his P-1 Visa and International Transfer Certificate (ITC), the team announced today. Per team and league policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. "Milton is a very good striker who has a deep and rich resume," said FC Dallas head coach Schellas Hyndman. "He is a goal scorer who has the ability to create goals for his teammates as well as hold the ball in the attacking third. He will be a very good addition to FC Dallas." Rodriguez, 34, is currently the leading scorer for Real Cartagena (8-5-4) where he has scored a league-leading six goals and tallied one assist in 15 games, bringing his career total to 137 goals. The left-footed striker spent the bulk of his professional career with Deportivo Cali, appearing in 98 games and tallying 38 goals. Most recently, Rodriguez has played for clubs Millonarios, Deportes Tolima and Real Cartagena. He has three caps with the Colombian national team. Rodriguez's Professional Career 1997-98: Corporacio Tulua 1999: Independiente Santa Fe 2000-02: Deportivo Cali / Corporacio Tulua / Palmira Cajamarca 2003: Independiente Santa Fe / Deportivo Cali 2004-2005: Deportivo Cali / Deportivo Pereira 2005-2006: Chonbuk Hyundai Motors Jeonju 2006-07: Newcastle Jets 2007-08: America Cali / Deportivo Cali 2008-09: Los Millonarios Bogota 2009: Deportes Tolima 2010: Real Cartagena Name: Milton Rodriguez Number: TBD Height: 5'11 Weight: 163 DOB: April 28, 1976 (34) Last Club: Real Cartagena Nationality: Colombian Place of Birth: Cali, Colombia Hometown: Cali, Colombia
Amazing. Happy to see him back. Used to love watching him play for the New York. His career really took a turn for the worse with that steroid result.
So where are the follow-up transactions? I would think that both Seattle and Columbus need to trade/waive/IR a player to be roster-compliant.
That was the week before. Montano played against LA. Seattle traded King away when Montano's papers came through.
Fucito's on the protected roster, so unless Parke is coming in for league minimum then Fucito going on IR isn't going to open up a spot on the senior roster. That being said, the Sounders had an open senior spot due to Jaqua being on IR. Once Jaqua comes off IR, I'd expect Taylor Graham to suddenly come down with an injury that forces him onto IR.
Since when do you need a doctor's note to put someone on IR? Team's have been putting players on IR with minor injuries since the idea of IR began. Seriously, how many times have you seen a guy on IR play in USOC or X CCL games? Or are the somehow to injured to play in a regular season game, but totally fine for the nonregular season games?

"Crew goalkeeper Kenny Schoeni retired following the game. Andy Gruenebaum (hip) will come off the disabled list on Monday and take Schoeni’s roster spot." http://blog.dispatch.com/crew/2010/05/crew_1_chivas_usa_0.shtml
Igor Kostrov was waived by KC last week: http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/signs-point-wizards-reaching-deal-beasley

Maybe this doesn't belong here but why would DC have to release Shipalane if he is on a season long loan?

? He was on loan to a USL team for a couple of games, It was erroneously reported by some as a season long loan, but there was no confirmation of that by Goff or the team.
