Aaron Sele getting restless

Owner of the best record among starting pitchers in Triple-A Vegas (3-0 with a 2.92 ERA), veteran Aaron Sele is apparently getting tired of the Nevada chips, black-jacks and roulettes. He wants to get back to the majors (and Dodgers) as soon as possible.

It's not necessarily the viewpoint shared by GM Ned Colletti:

"He's a little impatient," Colletti said
of Sele. "We have to come to some
crossroad soon."

Well, luckily for the Dodgers, and perhaps less luckily for the future fate of Sele, at least for now, our fifth starter - Jae Seo, woke up from slumber to pitch 6.0 innings of 2-hit ball Friday against the Padres. Doing this he basically took away Sele's chance to spell the starter at the back-end of the rotation, as Seo and Sele's pitching styles are quite similar (as are their names).

At this point, the crossroad that Colletti spoke about, seems at least a couple of turns away for Sele. Which might not be good news when you're 36...
