The Outfield

More on the CPC approval, upcoming City Council review and the near certainty of approval there, quotes from Sims on design and ticket affordability and other non-ULURP reviews to come before shovels hit the ground.

Do we know when shovels hit the ground/groundbreaking will be? After ULURP, they still have to wait for the Borough Board to finish before they can get started? And how long is that process expected to be?

I really like the design choices they made, they follow basically everything I think most of us have been saying - let's hope it keeps going that way.
Especially the ideas echoed by fans of being rectangular, with a sort-of architecturally nice design that won't make it stick out like a sore thumb. I'm looking forward to being able to attend one game a year! lol

I don't have a good answer on this unfortunately. I've been trying to gain a sense of timing of the Borough Board vote, but haven't been able to find a whole lot.

I will say, I imagine they're pushing as hard as they can to have it as quickly as possible. They're doing everything they can to speed things up so I imagine this will go the same way as well.

For example, out of all the items that were voted on at the last CPC meeting, only one of them was added to Land Use review by City Council the next day, and it was Willets Point Phase 2. They even already had it on the agenda to be added prior to CPC's vote.
 
Paul dives into the NYCFC II roster and breaks down their strengths and weaknesses.

It's a great preview if you're watching the USOC tonight. If you're not, it's still great insight into the second team and their purpose.

Doing a mailbag this week. Drop any questions you want us to answer!

What are the analytics saying about our start? Is there reason to believe we're going to improve, or are we regressing from the end of last year? Is there any way to look at the impact of coaching on our start?

Any intel or speculation on summer transfer activity, either buying or selling?
 
Give me any reason to be optimistic about this team. What should I look forward to when watching each game?
