#Quakes74 with an almost full strength roster for tonight's Decision Day game against Austin FC. Regular starting goalkeeper Daniel a late scratch due to injury, so Earl Edwards Jr. gets the nod.

Here's a view of the expanded training field, with the newer half in the foreground. The team is still waiting for its use permit to be issued, so it will likely be after the season before it can be used.

The San Jose Earthquakes still have everything to play for this Saturday against Austin FC, but the season postmortems are starting to be discussed. After training today, head coach Bruce Arena was asked about how the culture of the club has changed since he took over ahead of the 2025 MLS season.

Also, there's a giveaway planned for the season finale -- an action figure of #Quakes74 captain Cristian Espinoza! Available to the first 5,000 fans in attendance. #LaMaquina

Was out at the San Jose Earthquakes training facility for today's press availability. It's now double in size (the new half is in the foreground), though the team is still waiting for the use permit to be issued in order to play on the new part. A small, but necessary, improvement.

Based on this table, given that his winning percentage in 2025 is 0.424, the answer is "Yes."

#Quakes74 vs. FC Dallas starting lineups. Cristian Espinoza is back from the injury suffered in San Jose's US Open Cup loss; Niko Tsakiris gets the start over Jamar Ricketts and Ousseni Bouda (both on the bench tonight).

San Jose Earthquakes vs Austin FC #USOC2025 Quarterfinal starting lineups: both squads feature a good number of preferred MLS starters, as you would expect for a game of this magnitude.

Marching band halftime show! My second favorite intermission entertainment, after frisbee dogs of course.

Settled in for tonight's marquee MLS match of night: San Jose vs Minnesota at PayPal Park. Amahl Pellegrino gets the start for the suspended Hernán López. Remainder of the Starting XI remains the same for Bruce Arena's undefeated Earthquakes.

We also sampled new food items that will be available at PayPal Park this season. Soup in a bread bowl will always get my vote, but Big Chicken definitely got my attention!

Side note: When posing with they're new jerseys, they were asked not to show the front sides. This all but confirms that the Quakes will have a new jerseys sponsor this season.
