Another crazy week of MLS action is in the books. I managed to avoid the red card bug this week — but just barely (thank you, Dom Dwyer). This week, the double-game week (“DGW” for short) madness kicks back off again, as the New York Red Bulls and Colorado Rapids both have two games, starting with a head-to-head battle in the east, when the transfer window closes ON WEDNESDAY EVENING at 7:30PM EASTERN.
Since we have such a short prep time, let’s get right down to business:
@popejamestheIV lloyd sam or damien perrinele?
Both players are good bets to score points for the DGW, but both also have some worrying issues that may come into play. Lloyd Sam was subbed off early last week, and Jesse Marsch has already said that he’s thinking about making roster changes to accommodate the mid-week game, so there’s no guarantee that either player will start both matches. Perrinelle has the increased risk of the fact that he’s one yellow card away from having a one-game suspension, so if he picks up a caution against Colorado, he’s out for the rest of the week. That said, both guys are solid points-earners, and if they’re in the starting XI come Wednesday evening, I’d feel safe to bring either in. If I had to choose — I’d go Sam. He has a higher up-side.
@afpaulo_5 any Colorado players worth owning this week other than Dillon Powers and Torres? #MLSFantasy #AskTravis
If you don’t already have Colorado Rapids players going into the week, I wouldn’t spend a transfer on anyone except Dillon Powers. Even Gaby Torres is a bit of a stretch.
@MSVmomo who should i bring in for Kaka and Shea? Already got Sam, Shipp and Castillo.
I’d pick up Felipe or Dillon Powers, and Perrinelle if he starts on Wednesday.
@big_tx_morales let us speak plainly: I’ve ignored my line up for wks and need quick fix in 3 transfers. Go.
Lloyd Sam, Bradley-Wright Phillips, and Perrinelle. See above caveats.
@ChristineH865 Hey @travi_the_rabbi, if you could take it easy on me this week I would greatly appreciate it. #Relentless #NoMercy #ImALittleIntimidated
I can’t promise anything. 🙂
Best of luck to everyone* this week!
