  • El Colombiano!!!

  • ohhhh what a shot ya go timbers

    

  • this young kid is really good. his father was part of the famous colombian squad in the golden era, this kid is gonna do great things in the MLS.

  • @gti440 Thanks for explaining!

  • @danbfree While the age of the player does reduce his hit against the salary cap (only $150k because he's under 20), if his salary were even close to that limit it would be bought down with allocation $, saving the DP slot. Cooper, perkins, and chara have comparable salaries, so he might not get the biggest paycheck, but I still wonder if being 19, unproven (in MLS), and one of the highest paid on the team will have an effect. Just curious, we will see soon enough.

  • @gti440 As a "Young" designated player, I'm not sure how much he will be paid...

  • i am very glad timbers are proactive. GREAT JOB!

  • @gti440 Upgrade the clubhouse stereo?

  • Wonder what paying the youngest kid on the team the most money will do to the locker room.

  • Can't wait for the season to start
