Luis “Pipe” Urueta returns to lead Águilas Cibaeñas

Colombian manager Luis “Pipe” Urueta has arrived in the Dominican Republic to begin his second consecutive season leading the Águilas Cibaeñas. He made his debut with the team during a preseason game held in Bonao.

Urueta returns following a successful previous campaign where he led the Dominican Professional Baseball League (LIDOM) regular season with a 32-17 record, earning him his third career Manager of the Year award. He stated that his primary goal for this season is to secure the championship, noting that the team fell short last year.

In the weeks leading up to the tournament, Urueta plans to focus on in-person evaluations of the roster, specifically looking to assess new players and determine the team's overall strength.
