Washington Nationals closer Kyle Finnegan collected his 23rd save of the season with a clean ninth inning in Wednesday night's win over the division-rival New York Mets. Finnegan didn't record a strikeout, but he was able to coax Mets catcher Luis Torrens into a flyout to seal the Nats' 7-5 win over New York. The hard-throwing 32-year-old right-hander remains one of the top closers in fantasy baseball, posting a 1.98 ERA and 0.94 WHIP while striking out 39 hitters and walking 12 over 36 1/3 innings in 2024. Finnegan has now gone 23-for-26 on converting save opportunities.
Washington Nationals relief pitcher Kyle Finnegan has been a feel-good story through the first three months of the regular season. The right-hander was called upon to hold a one-run lead against the Colorado Rockies on Sunday. Finnegan allowed back-to-back singles to start the inning. He was able to battle back and recorded the next three outs and notch his 22nd save of the season. For now, Finnegan remains a solid source for saves. However, that could change if he's moved at the trade deadline and ends up a set-up man elsewhere.
Washington Nationals relief pitcher Kyle Finnegan was called upon to close down Sunday's game against the Cleveland Guardians. The right-hander gave up one hit but worked a scoreless ninth inning to earn his 16th save of the season. There's only three pitchers with more saves than Finnegan this season. He has done a nice job at closing out games for the Nats this season.
