Maves, 26, returns to London for his second season with the Majors after putting together a strong campaign in 2025. The left-handed hitting infielder set a career high with a .322 batting average, adding three doubles, one triple and seven RBIs in 16 games.
Prior to joining London, the Burlington, Ont., native spent the 2023 and 2024 seasons with the Barrie Baycats. Over 72 career CBL games, Maves has compiled 16 stolen bases, 39 walks and 49 strikeouts, good for an impressive .384 on-base percentage.

“We’re excited to bring Kyle back to the Majors for the 2026 season,” said Majors Field Manager Roop Chanderdat. “Kyle fits the identity of our team with his plus speed, defence and bat-to-ball skills. He’s a guy who can play anywhere on the infield and brings a lot of plus tools to our club. Just as important, he provides veteran leadership in our clubhouse as someone who has been in the league for a few years and understands what it takes to win.”
