- Ahead of the 2026 World Baseball Classic, the idea began from offseason talks between Nelson Cruz and Omar Minaya, leading to two exhibition games in Santo Domingo.

- While the Dominican Republic has hosted spring training, it has not held regular-season action, and Albert Pujols, the team's manager and 22-year MLB legend, joined Nelson Cruz at Winter Meetings.
