No way, Union needs a good midfielder/forward. The 2nd coming of Pat Noonan will happen in Philly!

If I'm Nowak, I am snagging Baudet (if he does indeed end up on the list) in a heartbeat. Decent salary, hard nosed defender, with a bit of skill to boot.

Agree that Kimura should be on the protected list. He's quite an underrated defender.

Having a Generation adidas contract makes you exempt from being picked in the expansion draft.

Color me confused, but what makes a player exempt from being picked in the expansion draft?

When you factor salary and performance into the equation, the Rapids are likely to keep Jamie Smith over Ballouchy, Baudet over Gibbs, and Kimura over Harvey. They also like Palguta quite a bit. Wouldn’t be surprised to see them keep him over Moor.
