Atlanta and Minnesota get to pilfer MLS rosters for players. How likely is it that the Rapids will hang on to your favorite player?
It was announced Tuesday at MLS headquarters that there will be an Expansion Draft in 2016. To help fill out the rosters of MLS newcomers Atlanta United and Minnesota United, each of the new teams will be allowed to pick five players off of current MLS rosters - with no team allowed to lose more than one player. This is a change from the last expansion of MLS, in 2014, when Orlando City SC and New York City FC entered the league and selected ten players each.
