My commitment to the franchise is quite high. We have unfinished business to take care of.\n\nThe young leader, known for being the youngest to win a title in the LIDOM, acknowledges the challenges presented by the upcoming tournament, but remains optimistic.\n\n

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.<\/p>Gilbert G\u00f3mez<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n

Reinforced Technical Body<\/h2>\n\n\nFor the new season, G\u00f3mez will have Wellington Cepeda as bench coach, a figure with extensive experience in the local and international league.\n\n

He’s a person we always wanted to have in our group. He’s a baseball man, with a high knowledge of the league.<\/p>Gilbert G\u00f3mez<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nG\u00f3mez highlighted Cepeda’s ability to contribute in various areas of the game, indicating that they are already working on his integration into the coaching staff.\n\n\n

Preparation and Focus<\/h2>\n\n\nAfter a season where the team failed to qualify, the leader emphasized the need to improve execution.\n\n

Our motto has always been preparation. We must do it with more emphasis, with a sense of urgency and better focus.<\/p>Gilbert G\u00f3mez<\/cite>\n\nAccording to G\u00f3mez, the goal is to correct small details that can make a significant difference in the final result.\n\n

All teams prepare, but we must focus on those aspects that give us an advantage.<\/p>Gilbert G\u00f3mez<\/cite>\n\n\n

Major League Experience<\/h2>\n\n\nParallel to this, G\u00f3mez begins a new stage in his career by joining the Mets’ staff as a first base and infield coach, after almost a decade in the organization.\n\nWhen the first game at Citi Field arrives, 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.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
