Algodoneros de Guasave

Founded in 1970, Algodoneros de Guasave are one of the LMP's historic Sinaloa franchises, representing the agricultural city of Guasave in northwest Mexico. The club won the LMP championship in 1971-72, defeating the Tomateros de Culiacán four games to two in the series final, and went on to represent Mexico at the 1972 Caribbean Series in Santo Domingo. The franchise was relaunched in its modern incarnation in 2019, playing home games at Kuroda Park in Guasave.

At the 1972 Caribbean Series in Santo Domingo, the Algodoneros finished with a 1-5 record, placing last in the tournament. Despite the result, the appearance remains the defining international milestone in the club's history — the only time Guasave has been represented at the Caribbean Series. With the franchise's 2019 relaunch, Algodoneros de Guasave returned to the LMP as part of the league's continued commitment to Sinaloa baseball.
