Altidore scored two goals in his return to MLS, and has seven goals this season. A part of the 2010 and 2014 U.S. squads in the FIFA World Cup, he was also called into the U.S. team for this year's CONCACAF Gold Cup.

He tied a Rapids club record with 10 shutouts in his first MLS season, also backstopping 14 victories for the club. Irwin came to MLS through the ranks, starting his professional career with Capital City F.C. in Ottawa before moving to the USL club Charlotte Eagles in 2012.
