Several Winnipeg Goldeyes players will represent Canada at the upcoming WBSC Copa América baseball tournament in Panama later this month.
Relief pitcher and Winnipeg native Ben Onyshko, starting pitcher Landen Bourassa, first baseman Matthew Warkentin, and outfielder Jacob Robson were all named to Baseball Canada’s roster for the international event, which runs November 13–17 in La Chorrera.
They’ll join a lineup that also includes former Goldeyes players Evan Grills, Brandon Marklund, Evan Rutckyj, and Nick Trogrlic-Iverson.
Team Canada will compete in Group B alongside host Panama, Puerto Rico, Colombia, Brazil, and Argentina. The top four nations from the tournament will earn a berth in the 2027 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru.
The Goldeyes will open their 2026 season on May 15 in Milwaukee, with their home opener at Blue Cross Park set for May 19 against the Kane County Cougars.
