Sebastian Saucedo wants more starts, but the young Real Salt Lake homegrown is learning patience

Herriman • Sebastian Saucedo’s role this season has been as varied as the theories of how “Game of Thrones” will end. Some games, he doesn’t play. Some games, he comes off the bench for about 20 minutes. Others, he starts.

In previous seasons, the fourth-year homegrown player everyone calls “Bofo” may have pouted about his playing time. He actually did just that during exit interviews last November, where he said he would be unhappy if Real Salt Lake’s front office brought in players that would take away opportunities from the younger players.

So far this year, however, it appears Saucedo has shifted his frame of mind, and coach Mike Petke has noticed.
