Keaton Parks - Injury not as bad as expected Parks is dealing with an ankle sprain and might not feature Wednesday against Orlando City, Glenn Crooks of the club's official broadcast reports.

The positive aspect is that the injury is not as bad as initially thought, so the recovery process might be quicker than expected.
