Starts Saturday
Saletros (head) is in the initial lineup for Saturday's matchup versus Toronto.
Analysis: Saletros has left his injury behind and claimed his holding midfield spot back from Dje D'Avilla. The Swede will also look to take some set pieces as he did before getting hurt, but he could share those duties with Philip Zinckernagel. While he has yet to achieve a direct contribution in league play this year, Saletros scored once during a US Open Cup game in April, and he holds decent all-around upside in his current role.
Resumes training
Saletros (head) took part in Thursday's training session after missing the previous game due to injury, Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports reports.
Analysis: Saletros was a regular starter and set-piece taker before his injury, so he should return to a major role if he's available for upcoming matches. His inclusion would be a defensive midfield boost for the team, and he could produce though crosses and tackles as he did in his most recent performances. He would be expected to replace the suspended Dje D'Avilla in the starting lineup for the next game, after which Mauricio Pineda may be the one to lose his spot.
