Valentin moved the team to Manatí, with the approval of the mayor of San Juan—causing controversy among fans of the Crabbers. In response, the mayor changed the name of the San Juan Senators to Santurce Crabbers for the 2004-05 season. However, the following season, the new "Crabbers" moved and the team changed its name to the Lobos de Arecibo, leaving Santurce without a baseball team for the first time in the league's history.
