Get your Dempseys here! Right here!
The MLS Fantasy platform just added Clint Dempsey to the game. His initial price is $9.5, but that's sure to rise as more people add him to their rosters. My understanding is that for every 1,000 transers in, a player's price goes up $0.1. As of this writing, 585 people have added Deuce (including the author).
Clint Dempsey's asking price of $9.5m in MLS Fantasy will not change for 12 days, regardless of how many people buy him.

Editor's note: So you have 12 days to add someone who looks likely to explode in price.
The provisional price is the fourth highest for a midfield player, behind Donovan, Zusi, and Magee. Dempsey's just a touch ahead of Dwayne De Rosario and the injured Javier Morales.
The Sounders have an intriguing schedule, too -- away against a perennially struggling TFC squad this week. Dempsey's attacking mates all make good plays, as does penalty kick taker Brad Evans. The club also does not have a bye week remaining.
