A 34th-round draft pick out of McKinney North High School, just north of Dallas, Bolsinger chose to play at Arkansas and was then taken in the 33rd round in the 2009 draft. Dallas Keuchel, his college teammate with the Razorbacks and a member of the Astros’ 2017 roster, went in the seventh round of that same draft.

Bolsinger was a 15th-round selection in the 2010 draft and four years later made his major league debut with Arizona at 26 years old.


By 2017, Bolsinger was out of minor league options and a long shot to make the Blue Jays’ roster. He had a poor spring training in which he posted a 6.23 ERA in 13 innings, allowing nine runs on 18 hits and nine walks. The spring was capped by a final outing in which he retired only one batter and gave up three runs on five hits.

He was released that very day, and no other team in MLB was interested in claiming him off waivers.

After a slew of injuries, the Blue Jays called him up a month later, but he wasn’t doing well.

Bolsinger failed to earn a win in five starts (5.61 ERA), then was moved to the bullpen, where he had a 5.28 ERA before the Astros went to work on him. He finished with an overall ERA of 6.31.
