First in the East. Not tied for first, not second based off goal differential, thanks to Sebastian Giovinco, the Philadelphia Union are first in the Eastern conference.
The Good: CJ the Running Man
Given that my hot take was that he would finally hit double digit goals in MLS play this year, I am ecstatic that CJ Sapong has four goals in seven games. He redirected a Sebastien Le Toux shot/pass into the far post for what is probably his best finish so far this season. He gets bonus points for celebrating by accepting the running man challenge, which I'll link to the original video of here.
