It's about giving the guys behind him minutes and letting them develop. Both Keita and Davis have the stuff to be big for the club, plus RBNY has a good track record of developing centerbacks so Redding should pan out after a bit with RB2. Combined with that DP deal the team is trying to do and we need the space in midfield.

The trade is more about other stuff going on around it and not so much the trade itself.

We'll see about Redding's development, I wasn't encouraged by his play in Orlando. I haven't been following the recent NYRB homegrowns but I think they'll really struggle next year to replace Sacha. In the end, I just think the trade is horribly slanted in Orlando's favor, and don't see why the Red Bulls couldn't get more for Kljestan.

It's happening! The deal has gone through! RBNY has spent a ton of money on a young attacker from Argentina!

The Garden State Ultras got banned from RBA. No more banners or tifos or nothing for them.

Reports out of Argentina indicate Barco is holding out for Atlanta. It looks like if Independiente want anything for him they have to sell in the next two windows. Hoping that by the end of January Lil Boat will be in Atlanta.

Benny trade hurts my heart. Sadness akin to losing Rosell. However...probably a smart move. He kinda had a down year last year. Out of contract next season. Get something for him. Etc. Really need to spend some Garber bucks to make something happen though. Otherwise start selling jerseys with TAM/GAM as the name and $$ for the number.

I thought Benny was older than 32. Good pickup for LA.

I hope he does well. He really reviatalizd his career when he came to SKC and I hope he goes out with a bang in LA...just not when he plays us.

ARRRRGGG. Just saw the Benny news. Damn. :(

I get the reasons it makes sense, but it still sucks.

Since Liga MX is starting up, what's the team to follow? Having zero knowledge, in the past I rooted for Pumas because of the logo. But I'm thinking of following a little closer this year. Proximity-wise, Club Tijuana is closest and has a upper tier logo so I'll probably go with them.

Caps president Bobby Lenarduzzi said Reyna's been cleared of any charges, so I don't think he's at risk of being arrested or whatnot anymore. Welcome back, Yordy.

Also looks like the Peru national team manager Ricardo Gareca, along with his staff and national teammates, back Reyna, so he'll be at the World Cup.

This Barco saga has been excruciating/intriguing to follow over the past few weeks. Hope it's finally coming to a close.

Ever since the 538 rankings came out, The Cauldron started some (good natured beef) with IFK Goteborg who are ranked one spot higher than us. For a couple weeks or so people have been tweeting back and forth at each other. It's been pretty fun.
