Sacramento Roster Thread - 2015

Depth not a problem. Probably making room for all those SJ loanees coming to us. /sarcasm off

 

You joke but that's probably true. I read in the Buckle Q&A that he just spoke with Kinnear, I'm sure there may be someone coming here soon. Maybe one of the new young guys they signed, maybe an underperforming player. The Quakes season is almost toast...

 

The tables thread is going up on Wednesday.

San Jose isn't toast yet, but it's mainly because Houston and Seattle kind of suck too.

 

Good call, Polemarch!
Interesting moves just ahead of the roster cutoff date.....something is brewing.

 

Unless we are bringing in some spectacularly better player I don't see adding a new piece or two right now as being a net positive to the team. It may just cause more bad than good. I think we cut some guys that went cutting their weight or weren't in the teams long-term plans, but I don't think adding new pieces will necessarily help since we have a good thing going already.

 

Didn't we add Kiffie around this time last year?

 

Some long-overdue reinforcements are coming:

I'm surprised they didn't loan us Silva.

 

Ditto - but just like us, the Quakes are pretty thin in defensive backup. He's staying for emergency I'm sure.

Anyway, stoked to have TT and Koval back. Kinnear is obviously not wanting them to play, so better here than rotting on the bench in SJ.

Sherrod - meh..

This move was timely - USL roster freeze and players need to have 5 USL games under their belt to be eligible for the playoffs.

With our injuries and suspensions in the midfield, the timing is right anyway. But talk about literally the last minute possible, just like last year. Quakes haven't been utilizing this affiliation like they should have been. Now throwing new players in the mix can be helpful or hurtful, we'll see what happens!

 

Still and all, about fookin' time the "parent" club came across with some bodies.

 

I doubt these 3 are loaned for the remainder of the season. Koval and TT have been unused on the bench but in the squad for at least the last 4 Quakes games so they needed match practice and SJ played last night so 7 days to recover - I'd guess they'll be back on bench for SJ this Saturday but may fly to Vancouver if they don't play much. The 3 remaining Republic games, Quakes play the same day and I can't see Kinnear weakening his bench to help out Republic...

Sherrod hasn't even been in the squad for 3 weeks and hasn't played since mid July so he may stick around if none of their strikers get hurt.

 

My guess is if any are to go back, it will be Koval.

 

With Daly gone is there anyone we could get to replace him? A lot of young defenders got released from MLS recently. Phanuel Kavita, Danny Garcia, Ethen Sampson, Otis Earle, just to name a few.

 

I'm sure we could get one of those, but likewise we could poach a defender from another USL team.

What I'm wondering is if the club's trip to England resulted in anything. Will we see a player loaned over from a lower division club there? Would be neat.

 

Obviously, the answer is and has always been, Mike Fucito.

 

Don't forget future all star defender Tony Lochead.

Dike, Arrieta, and Meyer seem good. The first if he can stay healthy.

 

Is everyone OK with locking this thread?

I started a 2016 roster thread- big moves happening
