Lucas Zelarayan too, but does he have a picture like this?

The United defense featured Brendan Hines-Ike ($5.6) with 11 points, followed by Andy Najar ($6.8) with 6, Steven Birnbaum ($5.) with 5, and Chris Odoi-Atsem ($4.0) with 1.

Meanwhile the pair of Diego Fagundez (ATX, $8.8) and Emanuel Reynoso (MIN, $12.3) shared second with two goals and 20 points each. The D.C. midfield was led by Chris Durkin ($6.9) with 11 points, followed by Jackson Hopkins ($4.6) with 8, Drew Skundrich ($4.9) with 6, both Sofiane Djeffal ($4.5) and Ted Ku-DiPietro ($4.0) with 2, and Russell Canouse ($4.9) with 1.

Looking Ahead
Everyone plays once this round. I like Gabriel Slonina in goal at Vancouver, and Alexander Callens (NYC, $10.6) in defense vs. Miami. Emanuel Reynoso looks great in midfield at Houston, and Jefferson Savarino (RSL, $10.9) is your man at forward vs. Dallas.
