Tigers Bolster Bullpen by Acquiring Closer Kyle Finnegan from Nationals

The Detroit Tigers have acquired veteran closer Kyle Finnegan from the Washington Nationals in a trade for pitching prospects Josh Randall and R.J. Sales. The 33-year-old, an All-Star in 2024, has recorded 20 saves with a 4.38 ERA in 40 appearances this season, despite a reported dip in his velocity. Finnegan's addition aims to strengthen the Tigers' bullpen as they contend for a World Series title.
