Underrated Bo player

Pros: Comparable to the CAT 7. Loud pop. Balanced. Big sweet spot

Cons: The grip fell off after a couple of weeks. I re-gripped with a Lizard Skin and it's better than ever.

Good bat!! Joshua Ochoa player

Pros: I wanted the 2015 easton xl1 because it had lots of pop and felt great. but since the xl1 is hard to find for a cheap price or beacause it is discontinued, i ended up getting this bat, it is a great bat, has alot of pop, and generally feels great in your hands it is design for every hitter in the game. i honestly know now that you do not have to spend 400-500 dollars to have a good bat. this is a cheap price but a great bat. i would recomend it!

Cons: Nothing so far..

Very good bat for price baseballmom parent

Pros: This is a great bat. My son has had the last three models of this bat and we keep getting them when they mark them down. He says he loves the balanced feel and hits very solid hits off these bats. He's a 3 hole hitter and hits 400 plus in high school season and in travel.

Cons: None that I know of. My son has never complained of any.

Nice balanced bat MJC parent

Pros: Very well balanced. Nice sweet spot. Great price. Got the 30 inch for son since he needed a BBCOR for middle school. He's not a big guy so I wanted something light swinging but not big $. This bat is as advertised. Very happy with it.

Cons: None. It's a single piece alloy so it will ring a bit on balls of the end or on the handle, but that's to be expected.

I am looking for a 30" BBCOR for my son who is 4'11"/75 lbs. I'd like the bat with the lowest MOI/swing weight. So far as I know, Easton is the only company that lists swing weight for their bats with the Z-Core Speed coming in at 6.7. Do you know how the Mizuno Generation, the Slugger Solo, and the CAT 7 would compare? 1stBBCOR
Unfortunately we would not know the MOI's of the Mizuno Generarion, LS Slugger Solo 617 or Marucci CAT 7. All of these bats will be similar as all are one-piece alloy models with balanced swing weights.
