In addition to catching, he has played all four infield positions in his career. “It’s good news for the organization that Kevin is back,” said Goldeyes skipper Logan Watkins. “It's important to have a strong veteran presence in the clubhouse, and he brings that along with a great work ethic. We have a lot of trust in him to control the game from the catching position, and last year, it was good to see him have a strong offensive season with added opportunities. He's been as excited as anyone to get back on the field in 2026 and is ready to get back to the playoffs.” Winnipeg now has 16 players under contract for the 2026 season.
