Winnipeg Goldeyes Manager Looking for Hall to Lead

IslandStats.com
New Winnipeg Goldeyes manager Logan Watkins thinks he has the roster to get the team back to their winning ways in his first year at the helm.

The 34-year-old from Wichita, Kan., has signed 16 players so far this offseason including Adam Hall, with a strong emphasis on bringing in names with experience — especially when it comes to his pitching staff.

“There’s going to be far and few guys with experience in the league and we’ve got three of them,” said Watkins.

Watkins is hoping Canadian outfielder Hall is one as the 24-year-old owns a career .279 batting average with 10 home runs and 118 runs batted in during his six years in the Baltimore Orioles system.

Born in Bermuda, Hall grew up in London, Ont., before being selected in the second round of the 2017 MLB June Amateur Draft by the AL East club.

“I’ve heard from multiple people that if the injury bug hadn’t him he had a chance to get to the big leagues. The feedback I’ve got on him and kind of looking at his numbers and seeing what he’s capable of, you can tell he’s a talented kid,” said Watkins.

“He’s still pretty young, he was drafted out of high school so he’s a guy who’s young in age but has a lot of experience since he’s been in pro ball since he was 18 or 19 years old.”
