But on the flip side, why would an MLS club throw a bunch of money at a player with an expiring contract anyway?
It will be interesting to see how these potential transfers all play out. So far it has been all about the inaugural rosters, recruitment, and development.

Well, from Vancouver's perspective, and given how much of a wreck their season is, they've got nothing to lose by letting someone like Pasquotti come in and essentially try-out for a full time spot next year.
From ours, the question would be what is more valuable to ownership: quick money now, or continued on-field success and the potential of a slower growth that brings? It would be a much different story, of course, if we were in Winnipeg's position. If you're going nowhere fast, then yeah, sell that coveted player.
