The Winnipeg Goldeyes have re-signed right-handed relief pitcher Derrick Cherry.
Cherry, 25, appeared in 40 games in 2025 while posting a 3-1 record with a 4.09 earned run average. He also recorded career highs in strikeouts (62) and innings pitched (66.0).
The Baytown, Texas native made his professional debut in 2024 with the Rocky Mountain Vibes of the Pioneer League, where he appeared in 25 contests, including five starts. He compiled a 2-5 record with a 7.97 ERA and one save, based out of a very hitter-friendly ballpark in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
“Derrick is another huge re-signing for us,” said Goldeyes manager Logan Watkins. “There were big portions of last season where he was probably our best reliever. He has a ton of upside for a young guy, and we are hoping he builds off what he accomplished last year.”
Winnipeg now has eight players under contract for the 2026 season.
