WINNIPEG, Man. – The Winnipeg Goldeyes announced Monday that the club had re-signed left-handed pitcher Travis Seabrooke for the upcoming season.

Primarily used as a starter in 2023, Seabrooke posted a 6-6 record with a 6.30 earned run average. The 28-year-old was named American Association Pitcher of the Week July 3 after a complete game, six-hit shutout of the Lincoln Saltdogs June 27.

Seabrooke also represented Canada at the WBSC Americas Pan Am Games Qualifier in Buenos Aires, Argentina where he won his only start, a 10-0, five-inning victory over Honduras June 20 in which he gave up only two hits.

The Peterborough, Ont., native appeared in 104 contests in relief between 2021 and 2022, including a league record tying 60 games in 2022.

Seabrooke was selected out of high school by the Baltimore Orioles in the fifth round of the 2013 Major League Baseball June Amateur Draft and played six seasons in their system, reaching as high as Class-A Advanced on two occasions.

“Travis is someone I knew right away we wanted to bring back,” said Goldeyes manager Logan Watkins. “Not only is he a well-respected pitcher within the organization but across the American Association as well. He will be a big asset to us this season and I know he’s motivated to have a strong year.”

Winnipeg now has six players under contract for the 2024 season. American Association clubs may carry up to 30 players during spring training, which begins May 1.
