Reader mailbag: Could Toronto FC sign a new DP this season?
Converting Jonathan Osorio to a non-DP isn't likely going to happen as it'd be an inefficient use of GAM or TAM by the Reds.
TFC Republic's reader mailbag column is where I answer questions from subscribers about Toronto FC and Canadian soccer in general.
I'll respond to the best queries submitted to me by TFC Republic readers, so feel free to drop me an email at jmo1897@gmail.com. You can also reach out to me via Twitter.

Why is Toronto FC being so secretive about the trialists they are inviting to their pre-season camp? TFC fans are restless and the fact that the team is not sharing updates of any sorts is going to stir up even more resentment against them. Even if they share a tidbit of information, I think that would give some sort of hope to the fanbase.

However, Herdman declined to provide any names.
