🕵️♂️ Transcript:
Chicago Cubs in contact with former Nationals closer Kyle finegan report the Washington Nationals opted not to Tender Kyle Finnegan a contract for the 2025 season at last month’s roster deadline the Chicago Cubs are reportedly in contact with Kyle finnean as reported by ESPN as the Cubs Tred to resolve their own closer situation the Washington Nationals opted not to Tender finegan a contract in November as part of their final moves for the 40-man roster with that the Nationals opted not to pay him an expected one-year arbitration deal of roughly $8 million and started their own search for a closer the Cubs are looking for a new closer after an injury to adbert Alay put them in a position to play Closer roulette last season Alay is not expected to be ready for the start of this season after Tommy Jon’s surgery given that he had surgery in August and with the recovery time it’s possible Alay won’t pitch until 2026 the Cubs non-tendered Alay last month Hector nerus led the Cubs with 19 saves while Porter Hodge had eight Alay ended up with four saves before his injury six other Cubs had one or two saves last season Finnegan’s Market also went up as a result of Jordan Romano’s agreement with the Philadelphia Phillies like finegan he was non-tendered by Toronto at the deadline in spite of two All-Star Game appearances in 2022 and 2023 he dealt with arm issues last season the Nationals have not made a free agent move this off season while other teams have made significant moves including the New York Mets record-breaking agreement with former National Slugger Wan SoDo the 15-year contract is the richest in sports history and ensures the Nationals will see their former star more often which may or may not be a good thing given his talent Washington is considered a potential landing spot for a pair of power-hitting Corner infielders in Pete Alonso and Alex bregman as I stated fangraphs currently projects Porter Hodge to be the inter solution the Chicago Cubs turned to take down the ninth inning the soon to be 24-year-old hodj who will turn 24 in February would be a solid choice to fill the closer role with nine saves already under his belt in his first season in the major leagues Hodge had a stellar season in 39 games 43 Innings pitched Hajj had a 1.88 ER nine saves and 52 strikeouts the 33-year-old Kyle finegan was non-tendered earlier this win by his now former team the Washington Nationals finnean has been connected to be won the Cubs reliever targets by Sports ska lyen Santo according to Jessica camarado of mlb.com who wrote about why the Nationals parted ways with finnean was that Hodge if he wasn’t the closer for the Cubs would still be a solid late inning reliever proving he is more than capable of fulfilling the job in 16 games 14.2 Innings where he appeared in the eighth inning Hodge has a 3.07 ER a with 17 strikeouts and holding opponents to a208 average for the ninth inning he’s even better where he has a 21 strikeouts held opponents to a 85 average and had a 1.26 erra in 15 games 14.1 Innings pitched also set to make $8.6 million in his final year of arbitration according to MLB trade rumors the Nationals weren’t going to pay finegan when there was an internal option available finegan in his 5ar career with the Washington Nationals accumulated a record of 22 to 26 with an erra of 3.56 in 291 games 29.1 Innings pitched with 88 career saves and was named to his first All-Star team in 2024 signing Kyle Finnegan to be a stop Gap while Porter hodj settles in and gets more Innings under his belt would be the best thing for the Cubs to do with Finnegan’s experience with closing he could be the perfect mentor to help hodj navigate the late innings in what will be his sophomore season both could figure to swing between the eighth and Ninth Innings giving the Cubs a solid back inning tandem with MLB trade rumors estimating finegan to make $8.6 million for this season I think with giving him a deal similar to that of the Pittsburg Pirates closer David bner who signed a one-year $5.8 million deal for 2025 and who had a worse season than finegan did in 20124 slightly less than what he would have gotten but I think giving Kyle finnean a deal similar to that gets the jobs done the Chicago Cubs remain on the hunt for arms both for the starting rotation and the bullpen their Bullpen needs specifically may be most urgent when it comes to finding a closer a shutdown game finisher who put away opposition the importance of having a closer in this day and age can’t be overstated having that finisher in the bullpen turns nine ining games to eight ining games as opposition struggles to not fall behind and face the wrath of a shutdown Master there are a few quality names in free agency who could serve in the closer capacity in 2025 for the Cubs but some feel that one of those names currently flying a bit under the radar may be the best fit for the club Kyle Finnigan has been one of the better closers for the last couple years but his shine was dulled considerably by playing on the Washington Nationals expected to be dealt at the trade deadline last season the Nationals opted to keep him and let him hit the open market as a free agent the Cubs according to Jesse Rogers of ESPN have expressed interest in the 33-year-old and have spoken to him already nothing has been reported since Roger social media post earlier in the month so either talks have cooled down considerably or a deal is already in place the latter is most likely
