The Mariners head into this season, like the last, without an import on the squad. Under head coach Daniel Castañón, and with QB Marcos Martínez and running backs Javier Castañón and Miguel Quince the team will battle to improve on their winless 0-5 record.
Osos Rivas enter the new season with a new head coach as Ricardo Martín has taken over from Jesús Sánchez. Martin has a number of well-known players returning including WR Álvaro Guitián as well as Mexicans Johnny Escobar (defensive line) and Jorge Juárez (defensive back). Apparently, another key signing is also imminent.
