Torsten Frings Out 4-6 Weeks

Huge injury news on the MLS front this morning, and it's a big blow for Toronto FC. Defensive DP Torsten Frings suffered a hamstring injury on the plastic pitch in Seattle and will be out 4-6 weeks. Ouch.

Frings will not only miss league matches, but the entirety of TFC's CONCACAF Champions League semifinal series against Santos. This will leave a big hole in their defense, a hole that Santos will be very keen to exploit. Frings backup is a rookie, so it could get really scary.

So the question is, will TFC try to bring someone in to help out?

I hope Frings makes a speedy and full recovery. I'm kind of pulling for TFC a bit this year. These guys need to make the playoffs.
