Greenspan joins Riverhounds
Minnesota center back Joe Greenspan has joined the Pittsburgh Riverhounds of the USL on loan. According to the press release, Greenspan is expected to be back in Minnesota sometime in May. The purpose of this deal seems to be to get Greenspan some first-team football.
To me, this is a way to get Greenspan minutes before the summer. Calvo (and maybe Taylor) will most likely get Gold Cup callup(s). #MNUFC https://t.co/zIV1s4w3Q2
