Shimer and I have admitted multiple times that we're not Brian Ching fans. Still, we never like to see any of the prospective US national team members get hurt.
A striker on the Houston Dynamo, Ching hurt his left hamstring last Thursday playing for the Dynamo and he's expected to miss the next few weeks. This could hamper his World Cup preparations and truth be told, nobody knows who will step into the second striker position alongside Jozy Altidore.
Ching and Colorado's Conor Casey are competing to make the 23-man roster. The US will gather for a final training camp in mid-May before their two exhibitions in the States: May 25 vs. Czech Republic in East Hartford and May 29 vs. Turkey in Philly. They also play Australia on June 5 in South Africa, ahead of their World Cup opener June 12 vs. England.
