Yankees Torpedo Bats

[steveringo]

Is this really a big deal? They are within MLB guidelines. Why not stop complaining and get onboard?

What's the deal with the Yankees' 'torpedo bats'? And are they really a competitive advantage?

The Yankees hit 15 home runs in their first 3 games of the season against the Milwaukee Brewers.

They are apparently legal and the whole league is now ordering them LOL

 

[Gman]

They need to make a movie on this with Brad Pitt playing Yank's GM Brian Cashman and Jonah Hill playing this MIT physicist inventor guy.

They can call it "Moneybat"!

I'm surprised there weren't more stringent regulations as to the bat barrel dimensions. Good find by the Yanks.

Have to think this is another way for the league to get more home runs and offense without juicing the ball, no wonder they approved them lol

How long until they arrive across the league? Trying to gauge how long the Mariners' FO has to use a new excuse for why the offense fucking sucks...

They can have all the bats they want.

What they should work on is bigger gloves!

I have no idea how long lol, be interesting to see if everyone starts hitting more homers. The Yankees hit 15 home runs in their first 3 games LOL

Royals don’t seem to be having a problem with the Brewers pitchers either. Is 8-0 right now.

Elly De La Cruz had a monster game last night, using a torpedo bat. Single, double two homers, 7 RBI's. Are pitchers going o spend the season quoting Admiral David Farragut? "Damn the torpedoes"

Knowing the Mariners, our betting average will probably go down with these things...
