Senior roster count toward the cap and have a minimum salary of 30kish. Dev roster players don't count towards the cap and make either a Gen Ad salary or the 12k or 17k salaries that bug your eyes out in the annual salary list. You also cannot have a player over 25 on the dev list. United has, I believe, on the roster: Senior 1. Zach Wells 2. Jose Carvallo 3. Bryan Namoff 4. Devon McTavish 5. Gonzalo Peralta 6. Gonzalo Martinez 7. Marc Burch 8. Clyde Simms 9. Ben Olsen 10. Dominic Mediate 11. Fred 12. Marcelo Gallardo 13. Jaime Moreno 14. Luciano Emillio 15. Guy Roland Kpene 16. Lucas Niell 17. **Open Spot** 18. **Open Spot** Developmental 1. Quavas Kirk (Gen A) 2. Rod Dyachenko(until told otherwhise I will not upgrade Rod) 3. John Carroll 4. Ryan Cordeiro (the draft pick we've already signed- I don't think to a senior spot. 5-10. **Open Spots** I think Moose is either too old to sign a dev contract or at a point where he can't afford to wait on a dev contract anymore so he needs to claim one of the two available senior spots. I'm also looking at Rod to upgrade at some point this season or be out at the end of the year. Spots 5-10 will be draft picks/random aspirants on the dev roster 18 senior roster players; 10 developmental players. Senior roster count toward the cap and have a minimum salary of 30kish.

Is there a roster size limit in MLS? I should know, but I don't. For as much as they’ve been playing Moose in the scrims, I think we’re keeping both, and Olsen will be out for a while.

Very good considering Olsen's recovery from his surgery is not going fast making Mediate the only right mid-fielder we have signed & healthy (unless you count McTavish as the teams current swiss-army knife- he did play wing 2006 before his knee injury). Might spell then end of Moose's chances of getting back on the team, or we might have them both if we are really worried about Benny.

He was great at first and then kind-of pooped out. Seems Kirk is healthy again so DCU may make out pretty well here (once more). I could be waaay off-base but its like the Xavier signing.
