I agree with Ozzy - the handles are too damn thin - and I can't add enough exclamation points. Having handled enough of today's bats, I don't think I'd want to be swinging one - the handles are too damn thin. I had the hands of stone as a fielder - and showed that by being a disaster in the field. But I could hit. And a couple of the biggest thrills I had as a player were jacking the ball a couple of times in a major league park - before the fences were moved in. Today's wooden bats are not the same as they were 30+ years ago. I used a 34inch, 36 ounce bat - how many of today's players would use a plus-2?
