I am so lost by this trade...why is an expansion team that isnt in the league yet allowed to make trades?

Kaka to Orlando confirmed. He'll be loaned out until OCSC's debut.
Nice!
Who needs 'legends' games?
What is happening to the player? Is he getting a vacation until the league starts, or are they going to loan him somewhere?http://www.impactmontreal.com/en/new...fc-jeb-brovsky

Makes absolutely no sense to make a trade this early. Sure, make an agreement for the end of the season, but a trade?
quite possible Brovsky will be loaned out to their Australian Affiliate, Melbourne City
seems like all the soccer Gods are pointing to Dempsey going back to Europe with his powerful world cup run.
Im sure the offers will circling soon
Sounds like Freddy montero is training with Seattle right now as well so they could have a built in plan to replace the DP slot
Doubtful. Who's going to pay him more then $120K a week, at his age?
But how will he market his Rap Album if he is in Europe. He needs to be near his Lone Star Thugz Yo. The South Coast Scene mixed with his NorthWest Crew in their graphic tee's they be packing in those skinny jeans. SC 4 Realz Y'all..
sorry. I should never do that.
as gansta as Dempsey seems. Mr backwards cap is the shizzle

Liam Ridgewell to Portland as a DP
He ain't that good.
.... Does Portland know about changes in the CBA that we don't? A fairly young for a CB DP signing.. seems odd unless significant changes are coming... or it seems like a waste of a DP slot.
When is CBA taking place?
this is a very odd DP investment
in March (I think, last one was signed in March of 2010 and was 5 years which I think means it expires this offseason.) The only thing I can think off is that the Owners have already decided to open the pocket books and make significant changes. Either that or Paulsons been eating a lot of the new brownie flavours in Seattle.
29 year old with starting Premier League experience over the past 2 seasons? It's a guaranteed DP contract.
I understand why he is a DP.
But it is a defensive player. Just seems like an odd usage for that slot.
Portland really much feel their back line is suffering in a nearly unfixable way if they are going to sign a DP defender, without some expectation that something is changing soon.
Given that Portland only plays 1 up top, it kinda makes sense. They would then have a spine of Ricketts, Ridgewell, Johnson, Valeri and Adi.
Also, I think their defenders aren't starters in my opinion.
This seems like a desperate quick fix or a sign changes are coming.. I'd rather the later but it's likely the former.
I've seen alot of Ridgewell and he is definitely not worth a DP slot. In comparison i'd say he's slightly better than Morrow. Funny thing is that still makes him probably the best lb in the MLS as of right now.

As an Aston Villa supporter, I can confirm what LFC8 says and unless you have 5 or 6 DP slots, Ridgewell is most definitely not a DP. He's a decent defender who served us well until we loaned him to Bournemouth (!) and then sold him to Birmingham. But he was never more than decent. At age 30, you can't even justify his DP status based on age. He has never played at full international level either. Considering that TFC wasn't allowed to sign Olof Mellberg who was a far superior defender and played for Sweden more than 100 times, it's puzzling why MLS would authorise this.
