History
The Conspiradores de Querétaro were established on 8 November 2022 and officially presented that same day in Querétaro City. Despite historically hosting several professional sports such as football club Querétaro F.C., basketball team Libertadores de Querétaro and American football team Gallos Negros de Querétaro, Querétaro have never had a professional baseball team.[1][2]
Purple, black and white were chosen as the club's colors and it was announced that the team would start play in 2024 and that a baseball specific stadium would be built to host the Conspiradores. The Conspiradores name references Querétaro's role as a meeting place for early figures in the Mexican independence movement.[3]
In November 2023, the Mexican League held an expansion draft, where the Conspiradores and the Dorados de Chihuahua, the two expansion teams for the 2024 season, picked 18 players from the other Mexican League franchises. Conspiradores selected Matt Clark, Iván Salas and Casey Coleman, amongst others.[4][5]
In February 2024, José Offerman joined the Conspiradores as the team's manager.[6]

Stadium
Initially, it was announced that the new stadium would be built in the El Marqués municipality, near the Querétaro Intercontinental Airport.[1] Nevertheless, in April 2023, works began in the Huimilpan municipality for the Estadio Conspiradores. The stadium will have a capacity of 6,000 seated spectators and 96 boxes and it was expected to be finished before the beginning of the 2024 season in April.[7][8] However, the stadium was not ready for the beginning of the 2024 season due to delays in the construction, meaning that the Conspiradores will play their home inaugural series against Guerreros de Oaxaca in the Estadio Hermanos Serdán in Puebla City.[9][10]
On 11 April 2024, Conspiradores announced that Finsus, a financial services enterprise, had acquired the naming rights for the stadium for a three year period, during which the stadium will be known as Estadio Finsus.[11]
