Are there current or recent sets of LMB (Mexican League). I've looked around but haven't found any info.
Also, any general info about baseball cards from Mexico would be appreciated.

Try doing a search with: tarjetas de beisbol mexicano
There havent been any league card sets created since 2005 but there have been local team sets you can run into using those search words. I've been searching at markets and antique stores in Mexico for cards but no luck.

About the best you can hope for are the occasional team issue. Somehow baseball cards or stickers have never caught on in Mexico, despite there being a long tradition of soccer and non-sports sticker sets from Panini over the years.

Diablos Rojos de Mexico released a sticker album around 2019. Has some interesting stickers from 1940's players like Lázaro Salazar

Very nice, I just found a seller on eBay that had them. I got the two sticker sets the Acereros de Monclova did a few years back.

My Diablos Rojos stickers and album arrived today. I hope to have the checklist added later this evening.

Wow, opened 100 packs of 5 stickers each and still need 22 to finish the set. No wonder Panini does the "order what you're missing" bit. Unfortunately, the slots in the album are not labeled by anything more than the number, so the initial checklist will have a few TBDs until I can figure out the rest.

Checklist is in for the Diablos Rojos sticker set. Rather than a traditional Panini-style sticker album, this is more of an 80th anniversary scrapbook, with lots of group shots of the team and staff, and lots of artsy shots of random stuff. Unfortunately, lots of these types of photos are not clearly identified in the album, so there are lots of TBDs even when I have the stickers to upload. Help would be appreciated.
