The Inside Pitch, the off-season radio show of the Winnipeg Goldeyes, returns Monday, January 24th on CJNU 93.7 FM.

The Inside Pitch airs live from 7:00-8:00 p.m. Central Time.

Monday’s guests include Goldeyes’ field manager Rick Forney, new Goldeyes’ pitcher Tasker Strobel, and Lake Country DockHounds inaugural manager Jim Bennett.

Forney heads into his 17th year as Goldeyes’ manager and his 26th overall within the organization. During his first 16 seasons at the helm, Forney has guided Winnipeg to an overall .542 winning percentage, 12 winning seasons, nine playoff appearances, and an American Association-record three championships (2012, 2016, 2017). Forney was voted American Association Manager of the Year in 2011 and again in 2020.

Strobel was acquired via trade in December, and was 3-5 with eight saves and a 3.71 ERA over 32 appearances for the Gary SouthShore RailCats in 2021. The Avon, Indiana native led the American Association in strikeouts among pitchers who made less than five starts. The left-hander did not allow a run against the Goldeyes in 11.2 head-to-head innings.

Bennett was hired by the DockHounds last August, and the franchise is set to begin play in the American Association in 2022. Bennett was voted the American Association’s Manager of the Year in 2019 after guiding the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks to a 63-37 record and the club’s first postseason berth since 2013. Bennett is also the pitching coach for the Australian Baseball League’s Brisbane Bandits, and serves as pitching coach for the Australian National Team.

The Inside Pitch can be heard live on CJNU 93.7 FM, as well as digitally at www.cjnu.ca, BellMTS TV channel 725, and through the TuneIn or similar radio apps for smart phones and tablets.

The Winnipeg Goldeyes open the 2022 season on Friday, May 13th versus the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks at Shaw Park.

The Goldeyes re-signed outfielder Max Murphy on Wednesday.

Murphy hit .307 with 13 home runs and 71 RBI for the Goldeyes last season, while starting all 99 of the team’s games in right field. The Robbinsdale, Minnesota native finished tied for ninth in the American Association in RBI, first in doubles (31), tied for 15th in runs scored (70), tied for sixth in outfield assists (8), and tied for 13th among position players in wins above replacement (3.1). The eight assists were the most by a Goldeyes’ outfielder since 2009. Murphy compiled five hitting streaks of seven games or more, including a 16-game run from June 2nd-22nd that tied a career-high. On June 16th, Murphy set a career-high with five base hits as part of a Goldeyes’ victory at Cleburne. Since first joining the American Association in 2018, the 29-year-old ranks sixth overall in the league with 9.9 wins above replacement.

“Max Murphy is a great all-around player, and I’m thrilled that he’s playing with us in 2022,” said Goldeyes’ manager Rick Forney. “Max has been a very productive offensive player since entering the American Association, and he’s a terrific defender with a plus throwing arm as well.”

The Goldeyes re-signed outfielder Tyler Hill on Monday.

Hill batted .294 with six home runs and 45 RBI in 94 games for the Goldeyes last season. The Wilmington, Delaware native added 67 runs scored, 21 doubles, six triples, 20 stolen bases, and finished fourth in the American Association with 74 walks. The 25-year-old committed just one error while playing a career-high 71 games in centre field. Hill ranked ninth among American Association position players with 3.4 wins above replacement.

“I’m glad to have Tyler back in Winnipeg,” said Goldeyes’ manager Rick Forney. “Tyler is a very good player who is coming off a fine season under difficult circumstances. I’m hoping Tyler can continue to provide our offence a spark at the top of the order.”
