Winnipeg Goldeyes manager Rick Forney announced Monday the signing of right-handers Matt Davis (left), Andrew Cruse and Jordan Stewart. There are now 20 players on the pre-season roster, 12 of whom are pitchers.

Cruse, 24, arrives following three seasons in the Philadelphia system. Able to do double duty, he is 13-12 with a 3.18 ERA as a starter, fanning 142 while walking just 53 in 201 innings.
