Yankees' Bat Controversy
Apparently MLB has approved of the Yankees new "torpedo bats." They hit 9 HRs yesterday.

They kind of look like a long bowling pin. It appears only 2 players use them. Jazz Chisolm and someone else. Judge hit 3 homers yesterday but uses his old bat.

Won’t every team Begin to use them if they offer some sort of an advantage?

Baseball players are creatures of habit...this will catch on, but it might take awhile to take over.

I've studied this a lot and I believe if they weigh as much as a duck, then they're made of wood. Thus they are used by a witch and we'll need to burn them.
My ruling is final. |

Disgusting because a classless org like the Yankees are doing it. I'd be fine with the Royals doing this though because they play the game the right way

27 World Series titles should be vacated and given to the Royals over this IMO

The security guards could have used that bat on the naked crazy woman at DFW.

if its all wood, why would they ban them?
Baseball needs more offense. If you cant add more offense without changing 100 year old rules, thats a win.

Is Tom Brady involved? Have the bats been deflated?

They've already hit 3 more homers in the first 3 innings today. Time will tell but the Brewers are usually good at developing pitchers but the Yankees are destroying them. Guess we'll find out what the Brewers are when they play the Royals this week.
