The Rapids go into a mini draft with every other team in the MLS today to get fairly talented winger Sal Zizzo. Sal played quite a bit for the US Mens under 18 national squad, leading them to the quarterfinals of the 07 FIFA U-20 world cup. He has one cap for the senior squad as well. Any little piece could help the Rapids, so I won't complain if he ends up going to us.
The weighted draft gives the Rapids a 3.43% shot at him. The announcement of who will win his services will be made at MLS.com at 3 PM mountain time today.
EDIT: All right, so Chivas USA won the lottery for him. Number of people surprised the Rapids didn't win... zero.
