Kyle Finnegan - Page 20 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Heads to IL with hamstring strain Finnegan was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left hamstring strain, Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports.

Impact Finnegan last pitched Sunday, striking out one in a perfect inning. It's not clear when or how he strained his hamstring but the issue is serious enough to require an IL stint. The right-hander will be eligible to be activated July 1, though his hamstring could very well require a longer period to heal. Max Scherzer (groin) was activated from the 10-day injured list ahead of his Tuesday start in a corresponding roster move.

Surrenders two in loss Finnegan (2-2) took the 2-1 loss in Game 2 of Saturday's doubleheader with San Francisco, allowing two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk while only recording one out.

Impact Finnegan was called upon to pitch the eighth inning of a 0-0 tie and proceeded to allow two hits and a walk while only recording one out to take the loss. He had pitched a clean inning in Game 1 of the doubleheader while throwing 16 pitches which could've contributed to the poor showing in Game 2, though Finnegan hadn't pitched since Wednesday. He now owns a 4.05 ERA pitching in mostly low-leverage situations.

Charged with loss Sunday Finnegan (2-1) allowed five runs (one earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out one in a third of an inning to take the loss against the Phillies on Sunday.

Impact Finnegan was brought on in the fourth inning of Sunday's game, but he struggled to hold the Phillies in check and was charged with his first loss of the season as a result. Although the right-hander struggled against Philadelphia, he's posted a 4.13 ERA and 1.67 WHIP in 24 innings across 26 relief appearances this year.

Nabs win Friday Finnegan (2-0) allowed no hits and one walk while striking out one in a scoreless seventh inning to earn the win against the Yankees on Friday.

Impact Finnegan tossed an immaculate inning Wednesday, and he was brought on during a 3-3 matchup Friday. He didn't allow any runs and was able to pick up his second win of the season since the Nationals scored six runs in the top of the eighth inning. Finnegan has posted a 3.29 ERA and 18:6 K:BB in 13.2 innings this year, but his fantasy value is limited by his low-leverage role.

Fires immaculate inning Finnegan struck out the side on only nine pitches in the sixth inning of Wednesday's loss to Atlanta.

Impact Replacing Erick Fedde with the Nats down 5-1, Finnegan got Austin Riley and Dansby Swanson swinging before William Contreras looked at a called strike three. Per Jessica Camerato of MLB.com, it's the fifth immaculate inning in Nationals history, with the right-hander joining Stephen Strasburg, Max Scherzer (who did it twice) and Jordan Zimmermann in a fairly exclusive club. Finnegan has had a solid start to the season with a 3.55 ERA and 17:5 K:BB through 12.2 innings, but his low-leverage role has limited his fantasy value, as he has only one win and one hold through 13 appearances.

Earns first win of season Finnegan (1-0) earned the win off the bullpen Monday against the Cardinals. He gave up one run on one hit while striking out two across 1.1 innings.

Impact Finnegan recorded the final out of the fifth inning and pitched the sixth while limiting the damage to just one run -- a two-out solo shot from Yadier Molina, who has been one of the best hitters in the National League in the first few days of the season. Finnegan has allowed two earned runs on 3.1 innings across four appearances this season, fanning five and walking just one.

Set for middle relief role Finnegan is on track to break camp in the Nationals' bullpen.

Impact The right-hander has a superficially shaky 6.75 ERA this spring and has served up three homers, but his 8:1 K:BB in eight innings is strong. Finnegan is coming off a solid big-league debut in 2020 and should fill a middle-relief role for the Nats.
