As a former catcher, I'm used to thinking about pitch sequencing and how pitches work in tandem to attack hitters at different parts of the strike zone. My goal […]
Kyle Finnegan To Serve As Nats Closer
Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez said that right-hander Kyle Finnegan will be "the guy" in the closer's role when asked who the team's ninth-inning arm will be with Tanner Rainey (elbow) out.
