Expansion Draft

On Wednesday, the MLS expansion draft took place.  With the second pick in the draft, Seattle selected RSL defender/midfielder Nathan Sturgis.  
Sturgis was a player that RSL acquired in the trade with the Los Angeles Galaxy that sent Chris Klien to LA for Robbie Findley and Nathan Sturgis.  
Sturgis has not played a lot for RSL, as he has been plagued by injuries.  In this past season, he only played in 3 games.  He had a lot of potential, but was not able to show it.

So, what do you guys think of this selection by Seattle?  Were you pleased by the pick, or would you rather have seen somebody else selected by Seattle?
