Option again
Zimmerman (undisclosed) has been cleared for Saturday's match against San Jose, according to manager Robin Fraser, per John Molinaro of TFC Republic.
Analysis: Zimmerman has been cleared of his injuries as he prepares for the weekend, set to make a return against the Earthquakes. This will give the club a starting defender back, a good sign after six goals conceded in the three games he has missed this year. He should assume his starting role back immediately, a veteran presence in the backline.
Ruled out Saturday
Zimmerman (undisclosed) is ruled out for Saturday's clash against Atlanta.
Analysis: Zimmerman is a late scratch for Saturday's match against Atlanta United due to an undisclosed injury. The former Nashville man brings averages of 5.7 clearances, 1.8 interceptions and 1.2 tackles per game in the three-man central defense, making his continued unavailability a notable blow for the backline. Raheem Edwards is set to retain the starting spot in his place, with Zimmerman's return timeline to be monitored closely in the coming days.
Starting midweek
Zimmerman (calf) is back in the starting XI to face Philadelphia Union on Wednesday.
Analysis: Zimmerman has fully overcome an injury that sidelined him in the previous two MLS matches, immediately being restored to a starting spot at the expense of Raheem Edwards. The former Nashville man is expected to feature as part of a three-man central defense, where he may be trusted for his averages of 5.7 clearances, 1.8 interceptions and 1.2 tackles per game.
