MLS: Kosuke Kimura is getting a fresh start for the second time in six months.
On Monday, the Portland Timbers announced they have traded the six-year MLS veteran to the New York, bringing his brief stint in the Pacific Northwest to a close after arriving in early July from Colorado. Portland received allocation money and the Homegrown rights to Bryan Gallego, a sophomore defender at the University of Akron, in the deal and sent Kimura and a 2013 second-round SuperDraft pick back to the Red Bulls.
