Ottawa, ON - The Ottawa Titans Baseball Club announced today the re-signing of right-handed pitcher Kaleb Schmidt and the addition of Canadian infielder Taylor Wright for the upcoming 2023 Frontier League season.

 

Schmidt, 24, split the 2022 campaign in the Frontier League with the Titans and Lake Erie Crushers. In 16 total appearances, the righty went 3-3 over 49 innings of work.

 

Hailing from Springfield, Missouri, Schmidt will enter his third season of professional baseball this summer. The 5-foot-11 hurler spent parts of four seasons of collegiate baseball at the University of Central Arkansas (Conway, Arkansas) and Drury University (Springfield, Missouri) from 2016-2021.

 

Schmidt made his professional debut in 2021 with the Southern Illinois Miners, tossing to a 4-1 record with a 3.88 ERA across 15 appearances.

 

Wright, 25, re-joins the Titans after spending 28 games with the club in 2022. While in Ottawa, he posted a .257 average with three homers and 20 RBI, playing multiple infield positions in the process.

 

The North Vancouver, British Columbia product spent the majority of the season with the Intercounty Baseball League’s London Majors. In 35 games, Wright hit .385 with six homers in 25 RBI. In the playoffs, he hit .386 with eight doubles to help the Majors win their second-straight title.

 

Prior to professional baseball, Wright spent two seasons at the University of Maryland (College Park, Maryland). As a senior in 2019, he started all 58 games, hitting for an average of .290.

 

The Ottawa Titans open the 2023 season at home on Friday, May 12th against the Empire State Greys. For information on season tickets, group outings, and nine-game mini packs, visit the Titans’ official website at www.ottawatitans.com.
