The Rapids have played twice at Yankee Stadium, losing 5-1 and 4-0. Tomorrow they take their third attempt at playing in the last real baseball field in the league. With a 3 week break and a road trip the odds are not in their favor. Kickoff tomorrow is at 3pm, and we've got 20 more games of Altitude TV issues before the new AppleTV deal kicks in next season.
Injury Report:
OUT: M Ollie Larraz
Disciplinary Report:
SUSPENDED: F Diego Rubio (Yellow Card accumulation)
SUSPENDED AFTER NEXT YELLOW: D Lalas Abubakar, D Auston Trusty, M Brian Acosta
Good to see everyone that's expected to be healthy is. Other than Rubio's suspension Fraser has everyone to choose from. In case you're wondering Sam Nicholson won't be eligible until the transfer window opens in early July.
After three weeks off I'm really not sure what Fraser is going to do with the midfield, so I went with the safest bet. I'm feeling fairly confident about the back-line and Zardes though.
Prediction: 2-0 loss. I just don't see the Rapids bouncing back in this one, even with NYCFC having a coaching change. Best case scenario is that our defense doesn't make any mistakes and we can play to a scoreless draw.
