Career

Boscán played in the Texas Rangers organization from 2007 to 2012, San Diego Padres in 2013 and Boston Red Sox in 2014. He signed with the Pittsburgh Pirates before the 2015 season.

Boscán was called up to the majors for the first time on May 16, 2015.[1] He was then called up a second time on July 12, 2015, and a third time on July 19, 2015. Each time, he was optioned to the AAA Indianapolis Indians before getting the opportunity to make his MLB debut.
