So Manny Acta is one of five finalists for the open Cleveland Indians gig. He'll come back for a second interview with Indians owner Paul Dolan, general manager Mark Shapiro, assistant GM Chris Antonetti and other front-office personnel on Tuesday at Progressive Field on Tuesday.
Says Canadian Press writer
Acta has experience dealing with young players and has been through a rebuilding project before, two attributes that could make him appealing to the Indians. Cleveland is considered to have more talent than Washington and could bounce back next season because it plays in one of baseball's weaker divisions.
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
