Joseph is potentially the best center midfielder in this league. I enjoy watching him play. He knows what to do with and without the ball. He can defend and attack. He is good in the air, too.

I would not be surprised if he finds a team in Europe.

You forgot that Badilla and Castro are both international players and acording to the rules all but 1 needs to be protected which means that one of your protected 11 must be left exposed.

PS. Good on yah for no longer plagerizing other pundits sights.

Parkhurst is 100% gone so why protect him. They have offered him $300K and he’s not interested so he won’t be protected.

You forgot Heaps, but I think he’ll be fairly safe to leave unprotected because of age/ability.

I think the Revs will leave Mansally exposed and maybe Cristman or Dube. Those 3 all have some upside, but are far from the sure thing that an expansion team will be looking for.

Albright gets exposed because of his large salary. And Igwe should replace him next season. I think the Revs would actually be thrilled if Seattle takes Albright off their hands.

Tierney gets protected, because Nicol really likes him and he’s young, smart and cheap. Ditto with Phelan – Nicol’s gonna make a player out of him. And, they are both local kids.

Ralston has to be protected for the “Okaroh” factor.

Twellman has MAJOR value, even if he transfers, so that’s worth protecting.
