Reviews
Average Ratings Based on 7 Customer Reviews
Pros: I got this bat for my 13 year old and he loves it. The alloy barrel has tremendous pop and the composite handle does a great job of minimizing hand sting. He was the "new kid" on his Fall ball team and most of the kids used his Marucci CAT 8 Connect. He now trains with 3 other boys and they have all bought the CAT 8 Connect after having used my son's bat.
Cons: None
Pros: Good pop... looking forward to breaking it in and the weather warning up .
Cons: None as of now
Pros: Tremendous pop when barreled. Nicely weighted. Power hitters will love this thing. A small bonus: the composite handle is textured in a way that holds tar really well and doesn't show it.
Cons: Too heavy for most of our players and there's no drop 10 version.
Pros: Minimal sting if any. My avg sized 13yo (5'7, 120lbs) had almost a .500 average the calendar year with 1/4 being of the extra base hit variety (not including reaching on error). A dozen or so hits were of the 300-350' variety to all fields.
Cons: If a fly lands on the bat, the paint flakes.
Pros: This bat has pop. My son is having the best fall! This bat it great and has given him the confidence to even be better!!
Cons: None yet
Pros: Great bat if you are looking to put the ball in the gap and get on base, also very balanced feel.
Cons: Does not have the greatest power, so if if you are looking for great pop in a bat then this is not option for you.
Pros: Great weight, even balance
Cons: I haven't found any
