The Metropolitanos of Havana was a baseball team in the Cuban National Series. The Metros, also known as the Guerreros (Warriors), had historically been a poor team, though they were ostensibly the heir to the Habana teams of the pre-revolutionary Cuban League.
Overview
Metropolitanos was one of two teams based in the city of Havana, the other being the more successful Industriales.
Frequently, the Cuban National Series removed several of the best players from the Metropolitanos squad and sent them to Industriales.[1] Players including René Arocha, Osvaldo Fernández, Yasser Gomez, Enrique Diaz, Yadel Martí and Antonio Scull had begun their careers with the Guerreros, only to be sent later to the Leones.
The Metropolitanos ceased operations at the end of the 2011–12 season.
