Washington’s Nationals avoided arbitration with reliever Mason Thompson, signing the right-hander to a one-year deal, and at the non-tender deadline last night, the ballclub announced they had tendered contracts, “to all unsigned 40-man roster players,” with, “...the exception of Kyle Finnegan and Tanner Rainey.”

Finnegan, 33, and Rainey, 31, are now free agents.

The Nationals’ 40-Man roster now stands at 36.
