New England just put three guys on waivers. Who do you think the Rapids will waive? More importantly, what useless player will Hanki pick up off waivers this year? Last year it was the Sleethstack.
RE: Where did you find out the waiver news? It's on the MLS website. http://www.majorleaguesoccer.com/content/03/mls1125waivers.html The waiver draft is today but I haven't heard anything about which Rapids are up for auction. Anyone??
three dropped The Rapids waived three, Michael Piserchio, defender, developmental Alberto Rizo, defender, TI/discovery William Sleeth, defender Info provided by 3rd Degree over on the Dallas Board.
9 total guys waived. Non picked up. Here is the story: http://www.ussoccerplayers.com/latest_soccer_news/396324.html
Re: three dropped Well, Rizo is on waivers. This is not surprising considering the Hank/Counce record with their TI/discovery picks. And Sleeth, man he either sucks (waived twice in two years) or he's the unluckiest guy in the league (injury plagued). I confused about Piserchio, since he's a developmental player and doesn't count toward the 18 man roster. Why waive him?
Re: Re: three dropped Because developmental contracts are only good for one year at a time, and teams are limited to 6 DPs on the roster. Before the team can pick up any new DPs (which now includes P40s) they first need to waive existing ones. This was probably done more as a courtesy to Piserchio than anything else -- i.e. waive him now rather let him hang on for the next few months.
