The 2024-2025 season of professional baseball in Venezuela has raised the curtain, we had just less than half a dozen games per team; however, with that sample we can issue some opinions in different aspects, at the level of fans the response has been completely satisfactory, we have observed good attendance of people to the stadiums headquarters of the sets that make life in the LVBP, undoubtedly this sport remains the pastime king of Venezuelans, all this despite the fact that soccer is gaining ground, especially in the new generations. As for the coverage that is being given to the league, it is improving with respect to previous seasons, there are about 8 television stations that carry the incidences of the different games, this includes 4 open channel television stations, something that has not been seen for many years, despite having so much coverage in the media, the attendance is still above average in the first games of the season.

As for the starting and relief pitching, everything indicates that we will again have a season with quite high collective effectiveness, even though the league is working on improving the quality of the pitching during the tournament, for example, they increased the number of imported players, so that the teams could put together a better pitching staff, but some teams have been inclined to strengthen their offenses, Just by observing the line up of the current champions Tiburones de La Guaira and the Leones del Caracas, it is clear that they went that way, although the Melenudos have some interesting pitchers that could contribute a lot in the bullpen.

The Cardenales de Lara, Aguilas del Zulia and Tigres de Aragua, took a different path when putting together their rosters for this campaign, the Crepusculares had to take drastic measures after falling in last season's final, for that reason they decided to completely renew their pitching rotation, the golden years of Raul Rivero, Nestor Molina and Williams Perez are behind us, for this edition we will have a rotation with new faces, mostly young Creoles, For this edition we will have a rotation with new faces, mostly young Creoles, a formula that has given results in recent years, while the Tigres and Aguilas, rely 100% on their offense and its importance was based almost entirely on starting and relief pitchers, in these first games of the campaign we have seen that the three teams mentioned above have not received as many runs as their rivals, an example is the beating that Caracas received last night from the Cardinals, that bulked up the effectiveness of the pitching of the capital.
Los anzoatiguenses es un equipo en donde el promedio de edad es algo elevado en comparación a otros equipos, creo que lo que debe implementar este conjunto, es darle la oportunidad a las jóvenes promesas y parece que lo están entendiendo, mientras realizaba este contenido, me enteré de un cambio que realizaron los Navegantes del Magallanes y los Caribes, en donde llegó a los orientales Romel Cuadrado, un slugger que puede aportar mucho y sobre todo aprovechar las dimensiones del estadio Chico Carrasquel, en conclusión, veo esta zafra dividida en dos grupos, Caracas, La Guaira, Magallanes y Cardenales, con todas las posibilidades de clasificar, Tigres, Zulia y Margarita luchando por los otros puestos de la clasificación, a Caribes lo considero en proceso de reconstrucción, amanecerá y veremos si me equivoco o no en mi análisis.

The Caribes de Anzoátegui and the Bravos de Margarita in my opinion still need to make some moves and strengthen some flaws, in the case of the islanders, it is necessary to work from their farms in order to improve the pitching, this factor has left them out of the final instances, hence the urgency to solve these problems, even more if they are looking to create an identity on Margarita Island, but they have the offensive base, they have to make these corrections and take advantage of this generation of players.The Anzoatiguenses is a team where the average age is somewhat high compared to other teams, I think what this set should implement, is to give the opportunity to young promises and it seems that they are understanding it, while I was making this content, I learned of a change that made the Navegantes del Magallanes and the Caribes, where Romel Cuadrado arrived to the easterners, In conclusion, I see this season divided into two groups, Caracas, La Guaira, Magallanes and Cardenales, with all the possibilities of qualifying, Tigres, Zulia and Margarita fighting for the other positions in the standings, I consider Caribes in the process of reconstruction, it will dawn and we will see if I am wrong or not in my analysis.
