Help Washington Nationals’ Kyle Finnegan raise money to fight pediatric cancer...

Kyle Finnegan put up solid numbers over seven seasons in the Oakland A’s organization after the Athletics drafted him in the 6th Round in 2013, including a combined 2.31 ERA between Double-A and Triple-A in the A’s system over 42 games and 50 2⁄3 IP in 2019.

The 29-year-old right-hander never got the call to the majors with Oakland, however, but he signed with the Washington Nationals on a major league deal this winter, and earned a spot in the Opening Day bullpen.

“I definitely feel like I earned this opportunity, so it’s nice,” Finnegan said, and now that he’s in the majors, and has a platform to promote things he’s passionate about, he’s trying to do what he can to help children and families dealing with pediatric cancer.
