WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Goldeyes announced Friday several improvements to Blue Cross Park that will be in place for the upcoming American Association season.  The biggest improvement will be a new LED field lighting system provided by Ballpark Lighting Inc. These new LED lights will replace the old incandescent lights with a more energy efficient and environmentally-friendly system. The LEDs have multiple colour fixtures and will improve the game experience with dynamic colour changes and customizable light shows for player intros, home runs, and more.

WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Goldeyes announced Thursday that outfielder Roby Enríquez has re-signed with the club for the 2026 season. The 29-year-old hit .280 for the team in 2025, with 13 doubles and 22 runs batted in. He struck out just 35 times in 243 at-bats. Defensively, Enríquez led the Goldeyes with seven outfield assists. Enríquez joined the team in 2024 and posted a .296 batting average along with 18 doubles, three home runs, and 42 RBIs. Prior to signing with the Goldeyes, the Carolina, Puerto Rico native spent two seasons in the Arizona Diamondbacks’ system, reaching the Class-AA level with the Texas League’s Amarillo Sod Poodles in 2022 and 2023. In 136 games in Arizona’s chain, Enríquez hit .290 with 27 doubles, eight home runs, and 65 RBIs. Enríquez made his professional debut with the Boise Hawks of the Pioneer League – a Major League Baseball Partner League – in 2021 after two seasons at Indiana State University (Terre Haute, Indiana). A left-handed batter, Enríquez also has experience playing in the Puerto Rican Winter League and has represented the island in the Caribbean Series, where he has been a teammate of numerous Major League veterans. “Getting Roby back is a huge boost for our lineup,” said Goldeyes skipper Logan Watkins . “We thought we had probably lost him to Mexico, so adding him this late in the offseason is really significant for us. He’s excited to be back and with us for a full season, and I think he’s going to have a great year.” In a separate transaction, the Goldeyes released rookie infielder Mason Dobie . The Meaford, Ontario product was slated to make his professional debut with the club next month. Winnipeg now has 26 players under contract for the 2026 season.

Pelletier finished the 2025 season with the London Majors of the Intercounty Baseball League, where he batted .243 with two home runs and four runs batted in in 11 games. The Repentigny, Québec native was chosen by the Texas Rangers in the 25th round of the 2019 Major League Baseball June Amateur Draft out of École Secondaire Édouard-Montpetit (Montréal, Québec). Pelletier attended Kansas State University (Manhattan, Kansas) from 2022 to 2024 and the University of Kentucky (Lexington, Kentucky) in 2025. The 24-year-old hit .224 with 20 doubles and 19 home runs in 173 college contests. He drove in 70 runs. A former member of Canada’s National Junior Team, in 2018 Pelletier competed at the Pan American Baseball Confederation (COPABE) U-18 Pan-American Championships, winning a bronze medal. “We are excited to sign another young Canadian player in Pelletier,” said Goldeyes manager Logan Watkins . “He’s going to strengthen our catching situation and give us opportunities to mix up the lineup a little bit. Raphaël is the kind of player our pitchers will enjoy throwing to, and his ability to throw out base runners will be critical when we face division opponents who like to run.” Pelletier is the seventh Canadian on the Goldeyes’ roster, joining pitcher Landen Bourassa (Lethbridge, Alberta), pitcher James Bradwell (North Vancouver, British Columbia), catcher/infielder Mason Dobie (Meaford, Ontario), infielder/outfielder Adam Hall (Lucan, Ontario), pitcher Eli Saul (Vancouver, British Columbia), and infielder T.J.

The Vancouver, British Columbia native split the 2025 season between the Hillsboro Hops of the Class-A Advanced Northwest League and the Double-A Texas League’s Amarillo Sod Poodles. He compiled a 5-3 record with a 4.74 earned run average in 62.2 innings pitched over 53 appearances. Saul was originally drafted by the Texas Rangers in the 29th round of the 2019 Major League Baseball June Amateur Draft out of Prince of Wales Secondary School (Vancouver, British Columbia) but opted to attend college. He was selected a second time by the Arizona Diamondbacks in the 13th round in 2022 after three seasons at California State University, Sacramento (Sacramento, California). Over four seasons in the Diamondbacks’ chain, the 24-year-old went 8-8 with a 4.94 ERA and eight saves in 136 games. “We’re excited to add another talented Canadian player to our roster,” said Goldeyes Skipper Logan Watkins . “Eli brings plenty of affiliated experience and a really strong arm. We expect him to be one of our power arms out of the bullpen and potentially a late-inning, high-leverage guy for us. I’m looking forward to seeing him throw in person and to seeing what he can do for our organization in 2026.” Saul is the sixth Canadian on the Goldeyes’ roster, joining Landen Bourassa (Lethbridge, Alberta), James Bradwell (North Vancouver, British Columbia), Mason Dobie (Meaford, Ontario), Adam Hall (Lucan, Ontario) and T.J.

(Yes, Really. Mostly.)

WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Goldeyes announced Friday the signing of Canadian outfielder Adam Hall . Hall recently represented Canada at the World Baseball Classic as the team reached the quarterfinals of the tournament for the first time. The 26-year-old began the 2024 campaign with the Goldeyes before his contract was transferred to the Milwaukee Brewers. He was ultimately assigned to the Biloxi Shuckers of the Double-A Southern League, where he hit .262 with three doubles and 16 runs batted in. Hall split last season between the Shuckers and the Nashville Sounds of the Triple-A International League, hitting a combined .232 with nine doubles, three triples, one home run, and 21 RBIs. He also stole 25 bases and was caught just once. Born in Hamilton, Bermuda, Hall’s parents relocated to southern Ontario to further his development as a baseball player. He was selected in the second round of the 2017 Major League Baseball Draft by the Baltimore Orioles out of A.B. Lucas Secondary School in London, Ontario. Hall played parts of six seasons in the Orioles’ organization, reaching as high as Triple-A with the Norfolk Tides of the International League in 2022. A member of Canada’s Junior National Team from 2015 to 2017, Hall also participated in the 2015 WBSC U-18 Baseball World Cup. “Bringing Adam back is huge news for us. He got off to a hot start with us two years ago before being picked up, and we believe he can bring that same impact again in 2026,” said skipper Logan Watkins. “We know he’s motivated to put together a successful, healthy season, and we’re excited to have him back.” Hall is the fifth Canadian on the Goldeyes’ roster, joining Landen Bourassa (Lethbridge, Alberta), James Bradwell (North Vancouver, British Columbia), Mason Dobie (Meaford, Ontario), and T.J. Schofield-Sam (Mississauga, Ontario). In a separate transaction, right-handed starting pitcher Ben Kowalski was traded to the Kane County Cougars in exchange for a player to be named later. Kowalski was re-signed on December 22 after making his professional debut with the Goldeyes in 2025. The 26-year-old split last season between Winnipeg and the Dorados de Chihuahua of the Mexican League. He went 3-1 with a 3.58 earned run average in seven games with the Goldeyes. Winnipeg now has 24 players under contract for the 2026 season. American Association clubs may carry up to 33 players during spring training, which begins May 3. 2026 Winnipeg Goldeyes Player Signings RHP Landen Bourassa RHP Luke Boyd RHP James Bradwell IF Ramón Bramasco RHP Derrick Cherry RHP James Colyer IF Ray-Patrick Didder IF/OF Mason Dobie RHP Arij Fransen C Kevin García OF Adam Hall LHP Ryo Kohigashi LHP Mitchell Lambson LHP Weston Lombard IF Keshawn Lynch OF Noah Marcelo RHP Noah Millikan OF Max Murphy IF T.J.

Photo Credit: Christian Gingras/Québec Capitales WINNIPEG, MB – The Winnipeg Goldeyes announced the signing Wednesday of left-handed relief pitcher Ryo Kohigashi (pronounced REE-oh koh-hee-GAH-shee) The 28-year-old most recently played with the Australian Baseball League’s Brisbane Bandits, where he appeared in eight contests and posted a 1-0 record with a 7.45 earned run average. It was his third season in the Australian circuit, having also pitched for the Auckland Tuatara and the Canberra Cavalry. The bulk of Kohigashi’s professional experience came with the Québec Capitales of the Frontier League with whom he won championships in 2024 and 2025. Over those two seasons, the Kyoto, Japan native saw action in 51 regular season games, going 8-3 with a tidy 2.67 ERA. “Acquiring Ryo was a little off our radar, as we were already nearing the maximum number of pitchers we expected to sign this offseason,” said Goldeyes manager Logan Watkins. “But after taking a closer look, he was simply too good to pass up. He has been one of the top arms on a very strong Québec club over the past few years, and we’re fortunate he became available to us. I expect his success in the Frontier League to carry over to the American Association and for him to become one of our more reliable options out of the bullpen.” In a second transaction, the Goldeyes re-acquired right-handed pitcher James Colyer . The 26-year-old reliever originally signed with the club in November, and his contract was subsequently transferred to the Washington Nationals organization. Winnipeg now has 24 players under contract for the 2026 season. American Association clubs may carry up to 33 players during spring training, which begins May 3. 2026 Winnipeg Goldeyes Player Signings RHP Landen Bourassa RHP Luke Boyd RHP James Bradwell IF Ramón Bramasco RHP Derrick Cherry RHP James Colyer IF Ray-Patrick Didder IF/OF Mason Dobie RHP Arij Fransen C Kevin García LHP Ryo Kohigashi RHP Ben Kowalski LHP Mitchell Lambson LHP Weston Lombard IF Keshawn Lynch OF Noah Marcelo RHP Noah Millikan OF Max Murphy IF T.J.
