Cameron Joseph Booser (born May 4, 1992) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Chicago White Sox of Major League Baseball (MLB). He has previously played in MLB for the Boston Red Sox.
Early life
Booser attended Fife High School in Fife, Washington, and played for the school's baseball team as a pitcher and first baseman. He was named his league's most valuable player in 2009. Booser broke his femur during his sophomore year of high school while playing football, requiring knee surgery. He also broke a vertebra when he was a senior while lifting weights. Booser enrolled at Oregon State University to play college baseball for the Oregon State Beavers. Booser had Tommy John surgery during his freshman year of college and transferred to Central Arizona College.
Professional career
Minnesota Twins
The Minnesota Twins signed Booser as an undrafted free agent on August 12, 2013. He made his professional debut that same year with the GCL Twins of the Gulf Coast League. In 2014, Booser pitched for the Elizabethton Twins of the Rookie-level Appalachian League. In 19 relief appearances he pitched to a 1–5 win-loss record in 31+1⁄3 innings pitched. Booser spent the 2015 season with the Single-A Cedar Rapids Kernels. He had surgery in August 2015 to correct a labrum tear. In December 2015, his sacrum was broken when he was hit by a car.
Booser split the 2016 campaign between Cedar Rapids and the High–A Fort Myers Miracle. In 21 appearances out of the bullpen for the two affiliates, he compiled an 0–4 record and 8.53 ERA with 31 walks and 34 strikeouts across 25+1⁄3 innings pitched.
In 2017, Booser was suspended 50 games after testing positive for cannabis. After making three appearances for Fort Myers during the season, Booser retired on November 20, 2017. Booser returned to the Seattle area to work as a carpenter. Missing baseball, he began to give pitching lessons in 2020, and found that he could throw a fastball at 96 miles per hour (154 km/h).
