We already can’t regulate shaved & rolled bats efficiently at the HS level. Now they got a -6 bat. HS baseball players are bigger & stronger than ever before. If -3 is a development issue then lose the hitting coach & get a gym membership.

@NFHS_Org @USABasePipeline Additionally, USABats at -4, -5 and -6 drop weights will be legal for high school play starting in 2028.

@TheseDeadLands In “theory”, a dude squares a ball up with both the lighter & heavier bat; yes, the heavier bat wins. Anyone benefits from a lighter bat when it comes to barrel control & hands to the zone, especially HS age. Good chance they square more balls up with the lighter bat.

@thereallsu777 @LesCampbell25 I’m not too concerned with a kid swinging a -5 in sub varisty games. I don’t care for the accommodating. It feels like asking a RB in football to get lighter so he is easier to tackle & better for tackling development.

@thereallsu777 @LesCampbell25 In TX shaved & rolled bats are illegal for a reason. I understand how rolling works. It breaks in the fibers creating a larger sweet spot and can generate a few extra feet on ball.

@thereallsu777 @LesCampbell25 Might point is there is no reason for the change and players are strong enough to swing a -3. It’s more about getting the bat through the zone that impacts the game/pitching due to more contact. They have now added accommodations for players.

@BearWithMe78 Take EV out. Lighter the bat gives you a better chance at making contact with faster pitching right… swing & misses turn into contact, foul tips turn into hits, etc. It does impact the game. In TX at the state games many pitchers sat 91-95. Another 3 oz off makes a difference.

@BearWithMe78 Mass does matter, that’s why Soriano swung a 36 oz bat. When you got guys benching 300 lbs with 108 EV, 3 oz is still a big deal.

@GoGoGominsky22 @USABaseball They are not asking the running backs in football to get lighter to tackle.

@USABaseball @NFHS_Org @USABasePipeline It might also be that they are not paying to play anymore when they enter HS and real competition starts. If anything this needs to be only a sub varsity ruling.
