Scouting Report

Assets
  • His calling card is a 12-to-9 curveball that falls off the table and is devastating on right-handed hitters. But he can also get his cutter in on lefties, and his backdoor curve is his out pitch to them.
Flaws
  • Sele does not hold runners on well, and he frequently gets taken advantage of on the base paths.
Career Potential
  • Decent back-end starter.
