As expected, Obafemi Martins remained in Seattle while dealing with a tibial contusion. That opened the door for Chad Barrett to make his return to the starting lineup vs. the Vancouver Whitecaps on Saturday. The other significant change from last week's game was the return of Lamar Neagle to the starting lineup after coming off the bench in favor of Andy Rose in the last two games.
