The Winnipeg Goldeyes have signed veteran outfielder Jiandido Tromp for the 2026 season.

The 32-year-old, from Aruba, most recently played for the Leones de León of the Nicaraguan Winter League, and hit .321 with seven home runs and 22 runs batted in over 40 games.

He also helped the Netherlands win their 25th continental title at the 2025 European Baseball Championship in September, along with 2025 Goldeyes infielder Ray-Patrick Didder.

“I’m excited to sign Jiandido and get him to Winnipeg,” said Goldeyes’ manager Logan Watkins. “He’s a veteran guy who has played a lot of baseball all over the world. I expect him to be one of our more consistent hitters and a great presence in the clubhouse.”

Tromp joins left-handed starting pitcher, Mitchell Lambson, who the Goldeyes announced earlier this week is returning for his seventh season in Winnipeg.

Winnipeg now has 18 players under contract for the American Association season.
