Kyle Finnegan is set to return to the Washington Nationals for the 2025 season after a surprising non-tender at the start of the offseason. Initially anticipated to be leaving due to cost concerns, Finnegan and the Nationals reached a one-year, $6 million agreement as spring approached. The right-hander, who made his MLB debut with the Nationals in 2020, aims to solidify his role as a reliable closer following a disappointing second half last season. Finnegan maintains a positive outlook on his relationship with the Nationals, acknowledging the business aspect of the game. He is determined to prove he can reclaim his form and potentially earn a long-term deal or attract interest in free agency.
