MetroFanatic has learned that neither Edgar Bartolomeu and Jacob LeBlanc made the trip to Spain and both will likely be placed on waivers. Bartolomeu's departure opens up a senior international spot, and Bob Bradley is busy looking for potential signings. There is a strong possibility that a forward will be signed soon, but that player should not take up the senior slot.

In draft pick news, Seth Stammler suffered a broken leg thanks to a Kansas City tackle, and will miss about four months. The last pick of the draft, Jeff Parke, has impressed greatly and could be the third man in central defense behind Eddie Pope and Tenywa Bonseu. One player who has not impressed is Johnny David, who has been cut, but could be back as a developmental player.

Rochester midfielder David Hayes, Hearts defender Austin McCann, and two Brazilians, midfielder Gilberto Flores and defender Danilo da Silva, are the non-roster invitees for La Manga.
