The Winnipeg Goldeyes have re-signed Canadian right-handed starting pitcher Landen Bourassa for the upcoming 2026 season.

Bourassa — who made 15 starts in 2025 — returns for his sixth season in Winnipeg.

The Lethbridge, Alberta native posted a 6-6 record with a 4.20 earned run average over 85.2 innings last season.

“Re-signing Landen is one of the biggest moves of the off-season for us,” said Goldeyes skipper Logan Watkins. “With him dealing with some sickness last year, he never really got his momentum for the season, but he went and had a great winter in Australia. He will once again be our opening day starter and be one of the top pitchers in the entire league in 2026.”

Bourassa has spent his entire professional career as a member of the Goldeyes after signing in 2021. In his 74 starts for the Goldeyes, which rank fifth in team history, Bourassa has compiled a 34-24 record with a 4.13 ERA to go along with 301 strikeouts. His 442 innings pitched are also posted in the Goldeyes record books, ranking fifth all-time.

Earlier in the week, the Fish also announced the signing of Canadian infielder T.J. Schofield-Sam.

Winnipeg now has 22 players under contract for the 2026 season.
