He was drafted by the Colorado Rockies in the seventh round, with the 202nd overall selection, of the 2023 Major League Baseball draft.[1] Halvorsen split his first professional season between the rookie–level Arizona Complex League Rockies, High–A Spokane Indians, and Double–A Hartford Yard Goats.

On August 30, 2024, Halvorsen was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[4] On September 21, he earned his first career save, tossing a scoreless inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers.[5]
