Buddy Boshers: A history in pictures

Although he’s only been with the Minnesota Twins organization since 2016, Jeffrey Alan “Buddy” Boshers has gained a following among fans. “His name is Buddy,” they say. This is true.

The Huntsville, Alabama native didn’t just show up on Target Field’s doorstep, radiant and ready to take the wheel of a raging Kyle Gibson disaster. Let’s watch the evolution of his personal style through the lens of the SB Nation photo archive.

We call this look “Buddy Boshers, Cali Style”. His 2013 Angels team photo shows off his playful, surfer side. He may be coming into the 4th inning of a 10-1 blowout, but he looks like he could be hauling his board and his sex wax to Huntington Beach, brah. Hang loose!

This look showcases “Mountain Bud”. The hair is trimmed, and there’s that smile. A sign of things to come, but it would take a move north to fulfill his destiny.

BOOM. Here, Buddy has perfected what we call “The Light Within”. He’s serious about this. You think this is some kind of game? Yes, it technically is, but you know what we mean. And you sure as shit know what Buddy means. Let’s get another look from this sesh.

Having reached the mountaintop, Buddy is just about finding variations on a theme. This look, “Street Magic”, shows a man ready for the moment, whatever it may be. It’ll probably be middle relief. But he’s ready.

That’s Buddy.
