In January 1987, a local businessmen group based in Puerto la Cruz, Venezuela stated their intention to Venezuelan Professional Baseball League to pursue an expansion franchise. Finally on July 15, 1987, the franchise was founded with 21 stockholders and begun a struggle for finding a second expansion team for it was a league requirement. It was not until 1990 that the Venezuelan league awarded the Puerto la Cruz-based franchise, and the Caribes de Oriente debuted in the 1991–92 season.[1] The team's name remained until 2005, when it changed to Caribes de Anzoátegui up to the present.
Throughout their history, the Caribes have won four titles (2010–11, 2014–15, 2017–18 and 2020–21) in seven finals (2003–04, 2010–11, 2013–14, 2014–15, 2017–18, 2019–20 and 2020–21).
On May 14, 2013, former Chicago White Sox, Detroit Tigers and Caribes de Anzoátegui player Magglio Ordoñez became a co-owner of the team.[2]
Since the 2010–11 season, they have not missed the playoffs once, the longest such stretch in team history.[3][4]
