The Charros de Jalisco have their war council set for the 2026-27 Liga Mexicana del Pacífico season. Manager Benjamín Gil officially unveiled the coaching staff that will ride with him as the back-to-back LMP champions chase something even harder to pull off: a three-peat.
Benji Gil and the Staff That’s Won Two Straight
Two consecutive LMP titles. In a league as competitive as the Mexican Pacific League, that doesn’t happen by accident — it happens because of a system. And when a system wins twice in a row, the last thing a smart organization does is blow it up.
The Charros announced their staff through the team’s official account, with the same battle-ready tone that’s become the franchise’s trademark — calling it «Benji and his troops.» That message isn’t just for the fans. It’s for the rest of the league.
Why the Coaching Staff Matters So Much in Winter Ball
In winter league baseball, the coaching staff often shapes results as much as the roster does. LMP rosters are fluid by nature — players cycling in from the offseason, imports coming and going, prospects getting their first looks. The coaching staff is the constant that holds it all together.
The fact that Charros are bringing back the exact same setup that delivered two championships says everything about the organization’s trust in Gil and his coaches. That kind of stability isn’t common in the LMP, where managerial changes happen both when results don’t come and sometimes when they do. Keeping the band together is, in itself, a statement of intent.
The Challenge of Going for Three
Winning one LMP title is hard. Winning two straight is exceptional. Going for three puts a target on your back unlike anything else: opponents who’ve spent months studying your tendencies, players arriving extra motivated to be the ones who finally knock you off.
The list of three-peat champions in LMP modern history is a short one — which puts into perspective exactly what this coaching staff is attempting. With Benjamín Gil leading the way, the Charros clearly know it, and just as clearly, they want it.
The 2026-27 season is right around the corner. The troops are ready.
