Mascai Returns to Royals; Signs First Multi-Year Contract in Franchise History

GUELPH - The Guelph Royals Baseball Club is excited to announce today the re-signing of outfielder Victor Mascai to a multi-year contract extension.  

Mascai, 25, re-signs with the Royals after a dominant debut season with the team.

In 2026, the Brazilian National Team star hit .336 with a .410 OBP and .577 SLG, good enough for a .988 OPS.

Mascai, who hit eight home runs in 2026, represented the Royals in the All-Star game and Home Run Derby.

Royals General Manager Ryan Eakin said building around Mascai is a no-brainer.

"Victor checks off every box you look for. He is a professional hitter, in his prime, who can play every corner spot, all while being a standout person and teammate. We view him as one of the better's hitters in the league, no matter what side the pitcher may be throwing from. We think he has more upside defensively as well."
