Fantasy Impact

With this performance, Finnegan continues to solidify his role as the Nationals' closer, now boasting three saves without a blown save this season. His solid 2.25 ERA and 1.50 WHIP indicate he’s been effective, although his K/9 rate of 6.8 suggests room for improvement in strikeouts. Fantasy managers should feel confident in his ability to contribute saves, but keep an eye on his strikeout numbers as the season progresses.

Fantasy Impact

After an unexpected non-tender in November, Finnegan is back in Washington and is immediately positioned as the frontrunner for saves in a bullpen without a clear-cut closer. He converted 38 saves in 2024 but posted a middling 3.68 ERA with a 60:24 K:BB over 63.2 innings. While he lacks elite strikeout upside, his role makes him a strong candidate for late-inning work once again.
