The Marineros de Carabobo (English: Carabobo Mariners) are a Venezuelan professional baseball team competing in the Venezuelan Major League. Based in Valencia, the team represents the state of Carabobo and plays its home games at Estadio José Bernardo Pérez. Established in 2021 as one of the charter members of the Venezuelan Major League, the Marineros have won one league title in 2023.

History

The Marineros were established in 2021 as one of the founding members of the Venezuelan Major League alongside the Senadores de Caracas, Líderes de Miranda, Lanceros de La Guaira, Samanes de Aragua and Guerreros de Caracas. The team were runners-up in the inaugural season, losing the championship series to the Senadores de Caracas, four games to two, led by Víctor Oramas, who won the Manager of the Year Award.[1][2][3]

In 2022, the team finished first with 25 wins; however, they were swept in the semifinals by the Líderes de Miranda in three games.[4]

In February 2023, Robert Pérez was presented as the team's new manager, replacing Víctor Oramas.[5][6] That season, the Marineros won their first Venezuelan Major League championship, defeating the Delfines de La Guaira in five games in the final series; Marineros catcher Dennis Ortega was named Most Valuable Player of the finals.[7][8] Yoel Yanqui won the batting title with a .395 batting average.[9]

In March 2024, Pérez left the team to become the manager of the Caciques de Distrito and was replaced by Robinson Chirinos on 26 April 2024.[10][11] The team finished the regular season in fourth position with a 23–19 record and lost in the semifinals to the Senadores de Caracas two games to three.[12]

In May 2025, Clemente Álvarez was appointed as manager of the team ahead of the 2025 season.[13] Yanqui again won the batting championship, recording a .438 batting average.[9]
