Chico Harlan, of The Washington Post, reports Washington Nationals manager Manny Acta said RP Joel Hanrahan is not on a short leash. Acta said, “There’s no such thing as a short leash for two blown saves.”
Our instinct: Acta would like to think theres no such thing as a short leash, because that would mean it would apply to him as well. Goodness knows, no heads need to roll in Washington, right?
