Enríquez Re-Signs as Goldeyes Add Late Lineup Lift

Winnipeg Goldeyes News Release


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. American Association clubs may carry up to 33 players during spring training, which begins May 3.
