After spending the second half of 2012 training with the Claret-and-Cobalt while not officially a member of the first-team, RSL-Arizona Academy product Carlos Salcedo will finally get his chance to step on the field in a MLS match this year. The 19-year-old center back still has a long way to go, but has the physical tools necessary to be successful on the professional level.
