Hello Colorado Rapids fans. This week on Holding The High Line, we preview the season by asking XI questions that will define 2023 for the Colorado Rapids. Also, we've got some updates from preseason in Orlando. Matt's seen the new secondary kit. We talk about it, to an extent.

1. How will Kevin Cabral do? What are reasonable expectations?
2. Can Diego Rubio keep up his goal contribution rate?
3. Who plays in midfield? What does that look like?
4. Will the club return to being the Set Piece Kings of MLS?
5. Who plays at center back? Will it be a back four, three, or five?
6. How will the Rapids concede fewer goals this year?
7. Will their road form be better?
8. Who can step up as an attacking role player?
9. Will the Rapids finally have a cup run between Open and Leagues Cup?
10. Between the club and Apple TV's work, will the fanbase grow?
11. Can the Rapids finally win a playoff game?
