It took two months, but the Seattle Sounders attack is nearing full health. Long-ish injuries to both Aaron Kovar and Brad Evans are close to resolution. On Saturday against the New England Revolution, the club may have a full selection for the first time in 2017.
Looking at the depth chart, every non-lock starter that can play in the four primary attacking positions offers different tools to change the game. Brian Schmetzer is going to have bench options that aren’t just plug-and-play (as Fernandez was for Lodeiro in 2016), but add-ons.
