Rangers Sign Pitcher Caleb Boushley To A Minor-League Deal
The Texas Rangers have signed right-hander Caleb Boushley to a minor-league contract. Boushley pitched in the Twins organization for the entirety of 2024, but only briefly in the majors with just four innings pitched this year. At Triple-A in 2024, the 31-year-old made 26 starts but pitched to a 5.23 ERA and 1.37 WHIP. The righty doesn't miss a lot of bats, logging just a 7.24 K/9, but he also only walked 4.9% of the batters he faced. The former 33rd-round draft pick will need to perform better in 2025 if he hopes to make it back to the bigs, but unless he changes something, he doesn't have the stuff to make him fantasy relevant.
The Milwaukee Brewers opened up a spot on their 40-man roster on Tuesday by outrighting right-hander Caleb Boushley to Triple-A Nashville after he cleared waivers. The 29-year-old made his major-league debut in 2023 with the Brew Crew but pitched just 2 1/3 innings of relief on Sept. 29 against the Chicago Cubs, allowing an earned run on a solo home run while walking two and striking out five in a blown save and a win. Boushley wasn't very effective in 29 appearances (26 starts) for Nashville in 2023, posting a 5.11 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 51 walks in 135 2/3 innings pitched, but he did manage to strike out a career-high 110 batters.
