2008 Winnipeg Goldeyes

[Morris Mott]

As of today, the Goldeyes have reached their "veterans" limit. The NL only allows teams to have 4 vets on the roster and with Kevin West, Fehlandt Lentini. Max Poulin, and Tydus Meadows.

Fehlandt Lentini was just released by his Mexican League team and eager to come back to the 'Peg. However, to make room on the roster for Lentini, since the Goldeyes already had their limit of "veteran" players, 1B Walter Young was traded to Sussex of the Can-Am League for a player to be named later. No coincident that Sussex is managed by former Goldeyes manager Hal Lanier so I guess they already had a connection ready to deal Young to.

Sure did.

Of course it's better than what most people call Winnipeg... they think our city name is named after a game for one-legged pirates (Win a peg... as in peg leg...lol).

On a sad note our gameday announcer has been replaced for the first time since the team's inception. The good news is that goofy "COLD BEER FOR SALE, TOGETHER WE CAN DEFEATE DEHYDRATION" guy is still on the payroll!
