OTFATT 2006: Update #4

4/11 (85 players remaining) 4/24 (66 players remaining) 5/7 (46 players remaining) Now we're getting down to the nitty gritty. In the ongoing quest to track which players have played every minute of the MLS season so far, there's some big news. Jon Busch and Dario Sala both were substituted on Saturday, making Columbus and Dallas the first two teams to be completely eliminated. We're down to 28 players. As usual, expect only about 4 or 5 to actually make it through the year. This is the point where injuries and suspensions start to determine who goes. I would say the most surprising guys still on the list are Bornstein, Dorman, O'Rourke, and Perkins. Dropped off (18): Chris Albright C.J. Brown Jon Busch Joe Cannon Taylor Graham Amado Guevara Shalrie Joseph Justin Mapp Carlos Mendes Tony Meola Rusty Pierce Eddie Pope Tim Regan Bobby Rhine Dario Sala Douglas Sequeira Adrian Serioux Marvell Wynne 2006 Candidates (28) CHI-Ivan Guerrero, Logan Pause, Zach Thornton CHV-Jonathan Bornstein, Brad Guzan, Sacha Kljestan, Juan Francisco Palencia COL-Kyle Beckerman, Terry Cooke DC-Brian Carroll, Facundo Erpen, Joshua Gros, Jaime Moreno, Troy Perkins HOU-Brian Mullan, Pat Onstad KC-Davy Arnaud, Bo Oshoniyi, Sasha Victorine, Kerry Zavagnin LA-Ugo Ihemelu NE-Andy Dorman, Jay Heaps, Matt Reis, Taylor Twellman NY-Danny O'Rourke RSL-Scott Garlick, Chris Klein Order of teams being totally wiped out, with last surviving player: 1.
