by Jesse Garcia | Nationals Correspondent | Thu, Jul 4th 8:15am EDT
Kyle Finnegan delivered a flawless performance, securing his 23rd save of the season in a tight 7-5 victory against the Mets.
Fantasy Impact:
He threw 11 pitches in a clean inning, allowing no hits, walks, or runs, though he didn't record any strikeouts. This outing underscores Finnegan's role as a reliable closer for the Nationals, maintaining an impressive 1.98 ERA and 0.94 WHIP through 37 appearances. His consistent ability to shut down opponents, evidenced by a low 0.198 BABIP and a solid 3.25 strikeout-to-walk ratio, makes him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues, especially for those in need of saves. While his lack of strikeouts in this game might not dazzle, his overall performance this season should keep fantasy managers confident in his abilities moving forward.
