Bashlor underwent Tommy John Surgery in 2014 and missed both that year and the 2015 season.[5] He made his return in 2016 with the Columbia Fireflies and was promoted to the St. Lucie Mets during the season. In 38 relief appearances between the two teams, he went 4-3 with a 2.75 ERA and 1.24 WHIP. He pitched 2017 with St. Lucie and the Binghamton Rumble Ponies, compiling a combined 3-2 record and 3.44 ERA with 84 strikeouts in 49.2 total innings pitched between the two teams.[6] The Mets added him to their 40-man roster after the 2017 season.[7]
