I have never seen a team with bat warmers or laying them on the roof. I think much ado about nothing.

Direct quote from one of the commentators in a game I was PU last year: "I like the fact he's calling strikes, but I'd wish he'd call more. The ink in my pen has frozen."
If you've ever hit a ball with aluminum in sub-freezing temperatures, you'll know why teams would warm their bats.
