Gómez promises a rematch with Licey: “We have unfinished business”

Port St. Lucie, Florida. Manager Gilbert Gómez has confirmed his continuity at the helm of the Tigres del Licey, driven by a strong commitment to the organization and the ambition to compete for the championship. After his ratification in February as manager of the blue team, Gómez assured that his permanence was always part of the plans after the previous season. That was always the plan. My commitment to the franchise is quite high. We have unfinished business to take care of. The young leader, recognized for being the youngest to win a title in the LIDOM, anticipates a season full of challenges, but remains optimistic.

We know that next season will be full of challenges and competition. I am very happy to continue leading the group and excited about what lies ahead.

Major League Experience

Simultaneously, Gómez will begin a new stage in his career by joining the Mets as a first base and infield coach, after almost a decade in the organization.

When the first game arrives at Citi Field, I will be able to describe what it means to be in the Major Leagues. I am learning a lot and very happy with this opportunity.
