Kyle Finnegan locks down Pirates for save
by Chris Schommer | Sun, Sep 8th 8:48am EDT
Kyle Finnegan delivered a flawless outing, securing a save as the Nationals edged the Pirates 8-6.
Fantasy Impact:
He threw 19 pitches over a clean inning, allowing no hits or walks and striking out two. This performance underscores Finnegan's role as a reliable closer for the Nationals, despite a somewhat turbulent season marked by a 3.47 ERA and five blown saves. His ability to maintain a solid strikeout rate (8.7 K/9) and a decent WHIP (1.30) keeps him relevant in fantasy leagues, particularly for those in need of saves. However, his elevated FIP (4.43) suggests potential volatility, so fantasy managers should remain cautious, especially in critical matchups.
