After Olsen's latest start with Class AAA Syracuse, a 3-2/3 inning, seven-hit, four-earned run effort on Friday against Columbus, those in the Nationals' front office spoke with the Syracuse coaching staff and determined that the left-hander would need one more rehab start.
Two of Olsen's rehab starts have come with the Chiefs; they've produced, total, 6-2/3 innings and an 8.10 ERA.
"He needs one more outing to come up here -- for his own good and for our good, too," Acta said. "They felt that even when he had good velocity he still wasn't sharp. He was scattering the strike zone too much."
great. 1 more start and Olsen is back for good.
