The New York Mets bullpen, boasting a 3.83 ERA this season, shows potential but also areas for improvement. Edwin Díaz stands out with 19 saves and a 1.66 ERA, showcasing his capability as a closer. However, the Mets could benefit from acquiring another high-leverage arm, particularly considering the injuries to their starting rotation that may affect bullpen usage. A potential trade target is Kyle Finnegan from the Washington Nationals, a team expected to be sellers this season.

Finnegan's 3.12 ERA and 18 saves make him an appealing option, although his age (33) might deter some teams. Nevertheless, analysts suggest he could excel as a setup man rather than a closer, making him a strategic addition to the Mets' roster. The Mets are keen on bolstering their bullpen as they push for playoff contention and look to overcome the formidable Los Angeles Dodgers. Finnegan's experience in pressure situations could provide the Mets with the depth they need heading into the critical final stretch of the season.
