Jaqua is expected to re-join training with the team in 4-6 weeks. He was placed on injured reserve on March 25 and is required to miss the first six games of the season. Jaqua is eligible to return to MLS play for the May 2 game versus Columbus Crew.

Jaqua, 29, started 27 of 28 appearances and posted career highs with nine goals and seven assists last season.

    It just gets worse for Nate.  First he finds out he gets to ride the bench the second half of the season, then he gets to sit out the first quarter of the season.  By the time he is in shape, he will be on the bench again
