Acquired by Tigers The Tigers acquired Finnegan from the Nationals on Thursday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.
Impact Finnegan has notched 20 saves for the Nationals this season, collecting a 4.38 ERA and 32:14 K:BB over 39 innings along the way. He is unlikely to unseat Will Vest as the Tigers' primary closer option, but Finnegan will give manager A.J. Hinch another late-inning option. With Finnegan no longer around, Jose Ferrer could be the current favorite for saves in the Nationals' bullpen.

Locks down 20th save Finnegan picked up the save Monday against the Astros. He allowed no hits or walks while striking out one over a perfect inning.
Impact Finnegan made quick work of the Astros in the ninth inning, retiring the side to seal a Nationals win Monday. The veteran has long been known for his inconsistency, and 2025 has followed that familiar pattern. He has allowed multiple runs in four outings but posted zeroes in 29 others. His overall numbers on the year, a 4.38 ERA and 1.28 WHIP over 39 innings, are underwhelming, but he remains a potential trade candidate for a contending team seeking bullpen depth, likely in a role outside of the closer spot.

Lowe homers as Nationals defeat Padres 4-2 to snap 5-game skid

Hammered in Friday's loss Finnegan (1-4) surrendered five runs on four hits and a walk in a third of an inning to take the loss Friday against the Padres.
Impact Called upon to protect a 2-2 tie in the top of the ninth inning, Finnegan instead served up a grand slam to Manny Machado. The Nationals' closer held a 2.16 ERA on June 13, but since then he's been tagged for at least three runs in three of his 11 appearances, stumbling to a 9.90 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB over his last 10 innings while blowing his only two save chances. Finnegan is a prime candidate to get moved by the trade deadline, but he isn't helping his market value with his recent performances.

Implodes in ninth inning Finnegan (1-3) allowed three runs on three hits and two walks over one-third of an inning, taking the loss and a blown save in Saturday's 6-5 loss to the Brewers.
Impact Finnegan had strung together 8.1 scoreless innings over his last eight appearances, allowing just two walks in that span. It came crashing down quickly Saturday, as he allowed three straight batters to reach base, including a two-run double by Andrew Vaughn that tied the game. Caleb Durbin delivered the final blow with a walk-off single. Finnegan has blown his last three save chances dating back to June 10 -- his recent strong pitching has come in non-save opportunities for the 38-56 Nationals. That poor record as a team suggests there won't be many saves to come by for any member of this bullpen, though Finnegan is on a one-year deal in 2025 and could be moved at the trade deadline. He remains the Nationals' best bet for saves for now.
