Amateur career

Boushley attended Hortonville High School in Hortonville, Wisconsin.[1] He enrolled at the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse in La Crosse, Wisconsin, where he played college baseball for the Wisconsin–La Crosse Eagles.[2]

San Diego Padres

[edit]

The San Diego Padres selected Boushley in the 33rd round, with the 978th overall selection, of the 2017 Major League Baseball draft.[3] He began his professional baseball career in 2017 playing for the rookie-level Arizona League Padres and High–A Lake Elsinore Storm.[3] He spent some time at Lake Elsinore in 2018 but played the majority of the season with the Single–A Fort Wayne TinCaps.[3] He also made one relief appearance for the Triple-A El Paso Chihuahuas. Boushley spent the entire 2019 season with Lake Elsinore,[3] and he was selected to play in the 2019 California League All-Star Game.[4]

Boushley did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[5] In 2021, he began the season with the Double-A San Antonio Missions but was promoted to Triple-A El Paso in late June.[4]

Milwaukee Brewers

[edit]

On December 8, 2021, Boushley was selected by the Milwaukee Brewers in the minor league phase of the Rule 5 draft.[4] He spent the 2022 season with the Triple–A Nashville Sounds, starting 25 games and posting a 12–2 record and 3.25 ERA with 91 strikeouts across 127+1⁄3 innings pitched.[6] He returned to Nashville in 2023, making 29 appearances (26 starts) and logging a 9–8 record and 5.11 ERA with a career–high 110 strikeouts across 135+2⁄3 innings of work.[3]

The Brewers selected Boushley's contract from Nashville on September 29, 2023, and he made his major league debut that night.[7] Pitching against the Chicago Cubs, he struck out five batters while allowing one hit and one earned run in 2+1⁄3 innings pitched to earn the win.[7] Following the season on October 31, Boushley was removed from the 40–man roster and sent outright to Triple–A Nashville.[8] He elected free agency on November 6.[9]

On January 26, 2024, Boushley signed a minor league contract with the Minnesota Twins.[10] On May 1, after 5 starts for the Triple–A St. Paul Saints, Boushley was added to Minnesota's major league roster.[11] He made one appearance, allowing two runs in two innings of relief against the Washington Nationals. Boushley was designated for assignment by the Twins on July 14.[12] He cleared waivers and was sent outright to St. Paul on July 16.[13] He had his contract selected to the major league roster again on August 27.
