Daily Detroit

Detroit City FC is in the final stretch of the regular season and making a push into the playoffs.

Fletcher Sharpe is in studio to talk about

• The match against Loudoun and Maxi's hat trick
• The importance of winning or at least drawing the Louisville City match to help our home playoff chances that stand at 17% as of this recording according to 538
• The USL Championship's largest ever Hadji Barry deal to Future FC and the players teams might want from Le Rouge's roster in the offseason
• Black Arrow picks in a truly crowded field this year and more.
