The good news, if you choose to look on the bright side of things, is that this year’s Expansion Draft should be a little less painful than previous ones. For one, each team can protect an additional player, bringing the total to 12. That’s in addition to any Generation adidas or Homegrown Players who were born in or before 1994. For the Sounders, that means , , , and don’t even need to be accounted for. Like the last couple drafts, each team can only select five players and no current team can lose more than one, for which they’ll be compensated $50,000 in General Allocation Money.
Who should Sounders protect in upcoming expansion draft?
