2025 BASEBALL BAT UNBOXINGS | Baseball Bat Bros Live

all right first bat uh this i think i know what this one is this is a louisville slugger i'm pretty sure and this is you know i'm cutting the chase this is probably the most anticipated unboxing a lot of a lot of you guys have seen this bat in the college world series and it looks really good this this is a bat that historically has not looked good at all so um i'm excited to swing this bat i've not taken any swings with this yet so see we got a bunch of you guys here what's up all right oh yes let's go okay for the first time in three years the atlas is good looking it was it was not good looking the last two years but okay so uh what i'm gonna do with each of these unboxings is i want your guys's opinion as well here but uh i'm gonna rate the looks on a scale of one to ten decimals included and then i'm gonna give you my prediction uh from bad mid dece slash decent or elite on uh how good this bat is gonna end up being just performance wise so yeah this bat's tough this bat is tough so the atlas looks good for the first time ever um here's a full look at the bat uh one one thing i know for sure that is new check that out guys we have a legit pro looking taper on the bat right here just gorgeous man feels very very good um i would hope and pray that they did not change the tech of this bat though so uh looks just because like you can't help but but taking a consideration that this bat's really good so i'm gonna give this a 8.9 i'm not gonna quite give it a nine because i'm not huge on mostly like mostly black bats because it just doesn't pop at the plate quite as much but uh the accents are just gorgeous you can see what this bat is from a mile away 8.9 very very good and in terms of what my performance uh projection is how i think this bat's gonna be i think it's gonna be an elite s tier bat i don't think there's many changes from 2024 and 2023 so um there you guys have it our first bat the end tab is crazy check that out so massive dub from louisville right here there's continuing an absolute tear of coming out with good bats and uh this one looks cool so i think this thing's gonna sell like absolute crazy not that we care but uh fire fire release i think this comes out at the end of august so august 20 something or so so uh there we go andrew thank you for the super chat my man all right so um we'll answer one or two questions and then we got to go right into the uh next unboxing so i saw somebody mentioned the marucci code so you'll actually see we we have guys we have everything here yeah if you're asking about a new bat release we probably have it here uh so marucci code and the marucci fractal are actually two brand new additions to the marucci bb core lineup this year and u-trip and usa i think uh and the bb core version of the code is gonna be 200 which we love to see thank you marucci huge dub and then the fractal is literally a hundred dollars so i think that might be a repainted f5 but i know the code is gonna be a completely new bat um but i'm really excited maybe the fractal bangs man that's a 99 dollar bat i'm planning on reviewing it soon uh we'll probably see it here so uh the price of the atlas i think is going to be 350 again i would be i would actually be so salty if they made it 400 um but we saw a really good move in the direct in the right direction from wilson with d marini bats they're kind of the same company you guys didn't know that all the d marini bats dropped back down 50 so now the goods is 400 uh and the voodoo and the goods one piece are 350 which is awesome so all right let's move on to a looks like we got a rawlings 2025 here rawlings just absolutely killing it man sick of hunting appreciate you bro all right i think this is a rawlings based on the box that says rawlings oh this bat looks cool all right if you're really savvy into the bat world like me you saw this bat used by kentucky uh in the college world series a little bit yeah yeah somebody already guessed what it is so here we go rawlings just been on fire lately which is good because they were down bad for a long long time but ladies and gentlemen we have the 2025 clout ai i hope this bat's gonna be 250 again we'll see oh that looks good bro i love the simplicity simple yet a bit chaotic with the design there dude that looks good what what what's uh what's more tough here the atlas or the clout i don't know because guys if you light colored bats if you tar them up they look insane they look so good i'm giving this even i'm i'm going in the nines boys i i got a nine one for the cloud ai just gorgeous bro absolutely love that uh there's a look at the grip tape and the knob uh my projection for performance here bad mid dece or elite i'm gonna say this is gonna be an elite back as long as they didn't change anything and especially if this is still at the 250 price point i would put this in the elite tier where i could see a college guy a high school guy absolutely loving loving loving this bat i think this is literally in our top four right now in our ranking so uh i hope somebody's asking repaint i hope so this bat is fire i i would be upset if it if it was not a repaint so uh hoping for a repaint because this bat bangs so there we go all right uh the the handle tape is a little different but that's about it all right uh we're gonna answer a question here i'm going into my sophomore year and i'm six foot 200 kind of hit for power i want to get the new goods two-piece should i get it i mean you're gonna love it it's a great bat especially now that they brought the price down and one guy told me that they are really confident that the connector piece issue the telescoping issue is maybe solved a little bit i would love that to be the case so yes i would recommend the goods two-piece but just keep in mind bro that it might break on you and you might be heartbroken best alternative i would have for you is probably the select power or the bone saber hybrid but if you're a true power guy select power or the goods the goods it's just i love that so much bro just make sure you don't go too big on a size if you feel iffy about a 33 get a 32 32 still match guys i swing 32s all the time and i love them so all right uh we're gonna go into our next bat here i got one more question for you guys um let's see oh geez olga appreciate you i'm 12 you but playing up to 13 so i need a bb core would you recommend something that's more forgiving like an icon or something that's light like atlas or cloud ai i'm kind of small so you're gonna be playing 13u so that means the pitching is not going to be very fast at all um with younger bb core hitters i personally prefer something more like an atlas or even like a voodoo one uh that smaller sweet spot isn't really going to be that much of a problem just because the pitching is pretty slow it's a little bit easier to barrel up balls but then you're going to get a really really light swing weight so uh i would really recommend an atlas voodoo i think that would be the move i think the younger you are as a bb core hitter the better a bat like the atlas or the voodoo one is and the more advanced facing 90 plus miles an hour in the bb core game you are that's where i'd more recommend like a select power or bone saber hybrid or an icon something with a more forgiving barrel even like a caddx connect or something like that sweet spot plays against fast pitching light swing weight plays against slow pitching even though a lot of people are going to disagree with that so um all right let's go on to our next bat i have no idea what this is if it's a boring one i'm sorry but i can promise that it is a new 2025 bat here so let's see we have another rollins dang that's anti-climactic but uh all right this looks like it's going to be the mock oh okay it's not teal it's kind of teal but all right ladies and gentlemen i actually had not seen this bat yet i didn't see any of the rolling schools late into the postseason swinging this thing uh it's cool it's cool so if you didn't know this is basically a really light version of the clout ai it's hot i like it it just lights your hands up that's my only beef with it but you don't mind that you'll enjoy it i'm 12 what bat should i swing for utrip and bb core i mean i'd go atlas for bb core for utrip i'd go iphone all right looks i'm gonna give this a 73 i think it's a cool looking bat but the black bats just they don't really stand out um no offense if you have a black bat but uh i just think they're you know harder to recognize when you're at the plate performance i think this is gonna be deece i think it's gonna be a good bat but just the fact that it's really stiff and rigid and rings you up a lot is gonna be preventative for a lot of guys this is one of those bats that i think would be good for a younger bb core hitter that is facing slower pitching uh or if you don't mind getting your hands lit up you might really love this bat but i live in a cold weather climate here in oregon and it hurts when i hit with this so keep that in mind but it's got pop man you can hit absolute jacks with this thing one thousand percent dude this is gonna be such a mess bro i have 17 boxes and even more bats okay uh three good bats right there all right i think we have some super chats i gotta get to here um nope we're chilling all right uh we'll get one question there's a lot guys if i miss your question i love you but um there's a lot okay is it okay to swing a 34 31 rawlings icon it's really light at 5 foot 11 guys you better be different if you're swinging a 34 you better be dang freaking good at no point in my career did i ever feel comfortable swinging a 34 and i hit the ball relatively hard even my brother jt like he even just just recently kind of started swinging a 34 and the kids a dog so you better be so strong to swing a 34 i swung 32s until so late in my career i think people think that they're gonna get like way more jacks with the 34 but i think before you hit jacks you need to hit barrels man and uh i think it's a lot easier to hit barrels with a 32 or a 33 or a freaking 31 if you're a younger guy uh than a 34 34s are hard to catch barrels with but when you get it it's gonna be crazy um it'll probably be great in bp those are if you're in a showcase sling a 34 bro like off of bp it doesn't matter just try to hit hard but against a pitcher trying to get you out bro that's a lot of bat to get around i don't care what bat it is so take that for what it's worth uh got appreciate the super chat bro i'm going into 14 you i'd like an affordable drop three does have to be light in weight under 250 so number one if you can swing it uh i'd get the the clout ai hundred percent uh number two we're actually going to unbox it here uh the new victus vibe so there's actually the pencil version that we've already swung that is 200 that is awesome uh the one piece not the two piece by the way and then they actually came out with just a regular victus vibe bb core 200 moderate to light swing weight that bat's very very good i think that's going to be one of the best one of the single best budget bats in the entire game this year so all right we got to get cooking guys i got i got to film our cat x2 composite vid tonight and i got to get done with this before it gets dark so all right next bat oh this one is actually wild so um jordan spencer i think that's my little teammate bro my man it's good to see you all right this dude i almost forgot i had this ladies and gentlemen this is going to be the second bb core release from soldier so this is not a u-trip uh this is a bb core bat i'm actually kind of excited about this so first of all it looks pretty cool and second of all this is actually a two-piece hybrid so uh alloy barrel and composite handle same setup as like the d marini the goods and it looks pretty sick dude it looks pretty good i'm gonna give it oh the accents are cool i'm gonna give it a 7.9 it's clean uh i don't know what the price point's gonna be soldier's been pretty good about keeping their bats cheap which you love to see and my prediction for how good this bat's gonna be guys i think i think it's gonna be good i've swung it one time just in the cage by myself it felt a lot like the goods a lot like the goods i don't know what durability issues are going to be like with that end cap if if you watch our videos you'll know what i'm talking about um hopefully there's no kind of telescoping issue i know there have been some durability issues with the soldier tank drop 10 but that is a good looking bat and i think it's actually going to be good i think it might be really good so very excited to review this i have no idea when they're planning on releasing it just showed up at my door one day but uh the new soldier tank two-piece hybrid i'm actually stoked for this so i forgot that was in this that's kind of exciting all right 13 year old contact hitter what do i swing bro i don't care if you're a contact hitter power hitter swing the icon or hypefire and figure out the swing weight those bats are generational generational bats all right hypefire or icon uh it's a good question man do you want your bat to last longer icon if you okay honestly this is more the answer if you're swinging a drop five hypefire anything else icon or soldier tank is also really good all right next bat here uh i don't think anyone's seen this i would be surprised if any of you guys have seen this bat this is there you go little teaser folks the meta 2025 meta bb core i think this bat looks pretty good so we'll see we'll see what y'all think all right so that looks not that exciting yet but so this is the 2025 meta bb core probably going to be just astronomically expensive we'll see maybe not maybe they're going to bring the price down a little bit because you know i always say this is an entry-level bb core hitters bat it's easy for catching barrels but i think if you're an advanced advanced hitter this might be taken away from your game a little bit you might be better with something like the atlas or the select power but uh this is a clean clean looking bat i'm gonna give it we're gonna give this 7-2 a good looking bat not crazy though and performance i think it's gonna be dece i wouldn't say it's mid because like there's there's a certain hitter that this bat's gonna be really really good for and i know like i i even umpire for like jv and freshman ball a lot of guys do really really well with this bat so uh i think middle middle to upper in our rankings but uh good looking bat right here i just hope they bring the price down if they could bring the price down on this bat it'd be an option we'd recommend a lot more just this has no business being $500 uh the meta 2025 appreciate you guys man you guys donating geez you guys are freaking sweet all right uh let's answer a question right here should we get the cat 9 comp drop 5 as a practice bat bro if you can get a cat 9 composite drop 5 game it it the og red and black cat 9 composite is one of my favorite utrip bats of all time and they secretly changed it with the american flag version that was actually pretty weird of marucci so um a little foreshadowing for the rest of our unboxings we're gonna see a cat x2 composite uh and i'm really hoping that's more like that that old uh black and red one we used in our first world record attempt so all right moving on here we've got a less questions more unboxings right i think everyone's going to be okay with that all right we have our first easton so uh clemson oh here i already unboxed it clemson is the the school that i've seen swing this uh that's pretty sweet this is the new mav one i think it's probably a repaint this is a bat that's deece you know it just in this category you have the cloud ai you have the atlas there's just multiple bats at a similar price point the goods one piece uh that are just a touch better so it's tough for me to really really push this bat but i mean that's clean that's a good looking bat right there um i'm gonna give it shoot trying to imagine like if i'm hitting i'm gonna give it uh i'm gonna give it a six nine shout out e sim all right next bat do you think the usa hype fire is better than the u triple sa one answer that for him chat no the usa hype fire is almost gonna feel probably so uh there is no scenario ever where a usa bat will be better than a u triple sa that it's the barrel is going to be huge it's going to look sick but similar to bb core guys u triple sa bats are where composite thrives usa similar to bb core composite is just kind of so so uh we got a super chat here let's see j loft is one appreciate you brother i'm 53 105 relatable me and jt were there at one point i assume a 31 drop 8 2025 zen did i get a small size no not at all anything that's a big size uh and what is your best tip to help young hitters um catch barrels don't worry about hitting home runs catch barrels uh and then let's see other tip try to like really try to get some hitting instruction because i know how hard it is to develop a good swing it's taken me a long time to kind of get where i'm at uh and watch yourself hitting on video and compare that against video of hitters you look up to and a hitter you kind of identify with too not barry bonds but like pick a major league or like you know jackson holiday or something or um like i always really loved like ricky henderson growing up uh pick a guy you really admire their swing and try to copy that on video i think that that is so underrated and it's really easy to do so all right another unboxing right here folks this oh okay we got a 2025 louisville new bat alert this is not a repaint this is a completely new addition to the 2025 bb core lineup for louisville slugger we have a new 200 dollar bat we love budget facts guys we love to see the budget bats shout out louisville uh the vapor the worst bat of all time has been nixed from the lineup and we now have the dynasty if you're a og mid-2000s metal bat hitter you will recognize this name they brought that out from way back in the day the dynasty used to be a really good beast or that but uh this is now their budget bat we have a one piece alloy um i'm hoping it's you know similar to the omaha or something like that i have no idea if this is gonna be good this might you know bring louisville as uh back-to-back years of the worst bat and bb core but it doesn't feel way too heavy i'm optimistic guys i would like this bat to be good uh looks hey at least it's bright red man i'm gonna give it a six one it's not in the fives because at least you know what it is and you know bright and shiny and fun looking a little bit of tar there would make this look good uh do i think it's gonna be good i think it's gonna be mid especially compared to the new omaha and the new atlas but we'll see folks uh all right we are caught up with super chats i think if i missed you guys i'm so sorry but uh so there we have the new louisville slugger dynasty i believe this releases um at the end of this month as well with the rest of the louisville all right let's see i'm 14 5 9 do you think the 2025 goods is good for me i'm more of a power hitter if you're swinging like a 31 bro maybe but like if you're 14 years old you're five nine you're a freshman the goods is probably not your bat bro like especially off of slower pitching i think you can get away with something with a little bit of a smaller sweet spot like an atlas or a voodoo one and you're gonna absolutely smoke the ball with those so if i was playing freshman ball i would get a light swinging one piece personally that's what i see a lot of guys really succeed with all right next bat i'm gonna have to start getting up for these man what time do we got 6 39 we're chilling all right let's see what we got oh this one's cool this one's cool all right ladies and gentlemen uh along the way to release that's also coming up at the end of this month late august is just bat release heaven bro uh we got a new super chat um william belinsky appreciate you bro how's the road to 90 going need more of those videos so i actually haven't been doing road to 90 lately just because i've been pitching like i play in my men's league and i pitch and i throw as hard as i can dude i swear yesterday in my game i hit a bomb by the way which was cool i think i might have touched 90 we'll see i'm gonna hop on the road to 90 again soon i'm gonna film it but i'm throwing hard right now i think the arm feels good my son's a huge fan mason giles oxford michigan i believe appreciate you man what up mason all right the 2025 icon if you follow our instagram page you've already seen what this bat looks like but dude i think this is one of the drippiest looking bats of the year man just beautiful just just gorgeous let's get a good angle all right let me know what you think it this is bone saber tan by the way shout out war stick you've inspired a lot of companies to take on this colorway but dude i again i love the simplicity man this looks like a wood bat you tar up the handle this is in the box i'm giving this also a 9.1 nah 9.2 9.2 this is an elite design job on this bat we do have a little bit i think potentially a bigger knob which is good and a lit and you know just that updated kind of thicker grip the handle feels a lot more normal on this bat compared to old icon i think this if i'm going to guess performance i think this bat's going to be elite unless they changed it at all a lot of people seem to think that with kind of the gold icon last year rawlings changed it mid-season after they had those end cap durability durability issues that a lot of you guys experienced firsthand a lot of people think they changed the bat and it wasn't quite as good that first icon i ever swung at the pgl american event and then you know my video with zach where it blew our minds dude that literally that was one of the best bb core bats i've ever swung and every one i've swung since then was like really great but it wasn't quite that like op icon that i remember first swinging so i'm really curious to review this we'll compare it to like some top dogs like the goods or we might even put it against the bonesaber hybrid again but just an absolutely amazing looking bat um again like just last year this is probably the most used composite bat i've seen in college baseball in the last 10 years so big shout out rawlings you did something good right here the price on this it's going to be five hundred dollars so we will take that into consideration with our review all right we got to keep going these are all broken by the way me jeremy and eason blew all those up in wyoming this that one is literally the bat i hit 580 with i could tell there's a little blue mark on the barrel who's your favorite baseball player pablo sandoval was always my favorite baseball player growing up i just thought it was fun to watch he swung at every single pitch which is kind of what i do in my men's league game all right oh oh matt black okay matt black hits a little different than shiny black especially when you have some accent on there this is actually designed really similarly to that soldier tank we just saw but ladies and gentlemen i'm gonna let's see we have bb core and we have you trip here i'm gonna show you you trip because i'm way more excited about that we have the world premiere oh this looks good bro of the cat x composite 2 from marucci brother-in-law jaron's in the chat henry taylor what up dude uh all right so this looks tough this looks really really good i'm going to give this an 8-7 on the looks and i'm going to make a bold prediction i think this could potentially rival the icon in usa marucci had the best bat in usa just like three or four years ago guys and then they went away from that tech to make a more durable bat and that cat x composite the silver one was just stiff rigid it was probably the most stiff rigid feeling unforgiving two-piece composite in all of you triple sa last year and then that cat 9 composite the black and red one was insane so dude i hope i hope it's so good i'm literally going to hit with this tonight you guys might not you know no promises you all right i got a couple super chats i gotta address here i'm gonna keep showing this off i'm 12 what bat should i swing for you triple sa and bb core i think we just had a similar question uh i'm gonna tell you for you triple sa icon for bb core atlas especially for a young guy i think i already answered that one okay so i think this is going to be good the b4 same exact design right here um i think it's gonna be mid the cat 9 composite was not even made it was just bad and then the cat x composite was mid it was it was an okay bat but you know proof is in the pudding nobody swung that bat you didn't see any college guys swinging the cat x composite especially at 500 the cat x composite vanta was 550 or something like that the cat 9 composite was 550 dollars had no business being at that price at that price point let alone even 400 so uh i would you know marucci knows what they're doing guys they're very savvy they're baseball guys i would assume they made an adjustment to this bat to hopefully make it justifiable at that 500 or which i think it'll be a price point so i think it'll be mid but i'm trying to be hopeful about it i'd love to see this be you know one of the one of the great uh composite bat reviews for bb core that are so rare in our videos so dude we're like halfway bro barely all right we gotta cook we gotta cook grace and jaron if you're watching miss you love you bonesaber or atlas depends man look at our rankings and just figure out what's more important those are neck and neck for me all right so uh this is a new release from wolver slugger another u triple s a composite and uh if you've been around the baseball world for you know five six seven years especially in bb core i think you're gonna like the name of this so uh the meta i think the meta might be gone for you triple s a and we now have the 2025 meta prime so this is going to be a brand new release from wolver slugger and i'm just going to start with this this is the single this might be the single heaviest drop five u-trip bat i've ever felt like they've even shown me their swing weight numbers it's the heaviest u-trip bat in their entire lineup and dude this is for absolute man children or women this is very very heavy it's going to be an absolute bomb hitting bat but i think it might be a little bit heavy for a lot of guys to reasonably swing uh it looks sick though i the barrel is like my forearm not to tell uh good looking bat i'm going to give it a seven eight and my prediction for performance is going to be mid just because there's such a competitive like class of u triple s a composite bats right now and it's heavy so we'll see maybe this thing breaks all of my velo records i think it's going to be really durable just because how how uh heavy it is but we'll try the drop eight as well and see if it's still that heavy but it's a lock bro we'll swing it soon uh i i haven't heard anybody give me any feedback on this bat yet so we'll see all right let's see what we got here best usa bat dude i i've swung every single usa bat by the way i actually think like i swear guys i think the bonesaber hybrid is probably the best usa bat and typically because it's really similar technology good bb core bats are good usa bats and the one exception i would throw in there there's actually a couple but one exception would be the atlas the atlas usa literally like it dents as easy as a soda can it is the most dentable wimpy bat of all time um the the voodoo one's really good in usa the select power is amazing in usa it's just heavy and then loaded the goods is also good but it's kind of heavy and then loaded uh but that bonesaber hybrid bro it's light swinging the sweet spot's good and the pop is really really really solid the dirty south bats are sleepers in usa for sure another bat that i swung that i thought sucked that i was so surprised about was the usa icon the silver one it felt terrible so curious to know your opinions there but i i swung it i had all my buddies swing it i had a bunch of kids swing it that about sucked so curious to see what wrongs does with that bat next year or maybe all you guys are just pretending it's good i don't know taste the bat smell the bat stop bro okay ladies and gentlemen comeback player of the year i'm calling it right now is going to be the omaha this bat has been completely retooled i got a chance to swing it already and i'm excited i think this could be an elite bat for 2025 the design is super mid 5-3 but new omaha so we have that taper uh similar to what was on the atlas right there which we love to see you guys all wood bats have a good taper like this like why why was the metal bat world so late to get to it uh first thing you'll notice though which i was kind of bummed about the omaha is known for kind of that signature like thud clack sort of sound to it but this is going to be loud loud like the atlas was so but you can really think of this i i'm expecting the omaha to basically be you know what we really hoped it was an end-loaded atlas and i think we finally finally have that so all right we got a super chat here chris boone for use to buy more roof balls i love those let's go bro appreciate you man all right dude i can't even get to those it's it's getting bad over there all right i have a 1990 omaha i don't know if they existed back then you should do a 12 you see 12 you team with eric sim to go against potts town that'd be fire i'm not a very good coach all right guys so this was jt's gamer at the end of last year uh let me know what you think i think the look is kind of mid by the way i know i'm wearing an arm sleeve on stream i'm going to film literally right after this i know that's that's a tough look but all right kind of funky i know that they went for like a sunset sort of thing uh i don't think it looks very good but guys the select power has been amazing amazing amazing for the last six years you guys seem to kind of like it i'm going to give it a six now i'm going to give it a five seven the looks are kind of mid however i do have to talk about this one as well so last year we crowned this bat in our 2024 bat bro award show as the dolly parton award which if you don't know who dolly parton is uh ageless this bat has been good good looking good performing year after year after year after year it's the one single bat that i would never ever change like there's this bat is so money it is the best sweet spot in bb core there's no reason to ever change this bat and i think they did i think they changed it the sound is different it doesn't have that pop kind of composite sound it's it's like pinging so we'll see i have not actually haven't even hit with this bat yet dude the end caps are crazy by the way shout out louisville i want to see what the meta end cap looks like by the way the meta doesn't have that new taper and it doesn't have the funky end cap either but this doesn't have that new taper either they just picked like three new colors for the end cap apparently but uh john said he loved it though my brother said this bat's so good so um i'm going to go into it with high hopes once again just that it doesn't have the the this was the best sounding bat in the game and they changed it so i don't know how i feel about that guys all right going on to our next bat we have six more my office floor is absolutely covered all right i just turned 11 90 pounds 410 do you think a soldier tank 30 20 is a good bat for me 410 as far as sizing i'm not 100 sure but yeah the tank's a great bat bro it the tank icon the hype fire the zen even like the new bone saver composite i've heard really good feedback about that you guys get to use the most juiced freaking bats ever you're gonna be just fine with any of those hey will i currently game the bone saber in college and i've loved it they don't need to but do you know if they're making a new version so don't quote me on this but i think warstick might be working on variations of the bone saber with a more standard handle so i don't think they should or need to change the barrels at all but i do think they might be adjusting the handle and at least offering an alternative to the complete flare handle so i'd be really interested to see that i do think they're potentially working on a new version of the bone saver one piece like a more m-loaded version so uh they are very very good at being innovative and trying to make the new next best thing so i would expect four sticks gonna come out with some bangers pretty soon all right next bat all right so this is that it doesn't look good for eight uh this is that 99 marucci i was telling you guys about you can tell i've i did not i don't know why that's on there i have not hit with this bat uh but this is replacing the f5 marucci told me they think it's really good so uh we'll keep this brief but the new 99 bb core offering from marucci love to see it bro the fact that they even have a hundred dollar bat is a huge huge dub jaren thinks it looks sick it's bad taste bro bad taste all right next bat zen or tank probably the tank let's see here demarini voodoo 2024 for 200 is it a good deal yeah for 200 yes absolutely bro as long as it fits your game and like that's what you want to swing all right oh okay this is the one bat i don't know if i'm supposed to show yet so i'm sorry if this offends anyone but ladies and gentlemen the zoa is gone for bb core the demarini cf is gone for bb core yeah a lot of people are actually surprised by this we have the 2025 demarini zen two-piece composite bb core really curious about this guys uh the cf zen used to be a pretty popular bat in bb core especially like way back in the beaster days the cf bats were really really popular uh and then you know they came out with that zoa two years ago and not a good bet i would consider that a bad bet the the gold zoa and that black and blue zoa especially because they were five hundred dollars there's no reason for those bats to be five hundred dollars so it's redemption time with the zen this definitely feels very balanced i would assume this is going to be more like the old cf bats uh than the zoa bats that were kind of more of an unloaded composite uh looks tell me if you guys disagree but i don't know if it's quite the looker we're gonna give it a four seven but performance if i were to predict what i think the performance on this bat will be again this doesn't you know this doesn't matter i've never swung this bat like my prediction does not matter the video the review we do in a month from now is going to matter i think it's going to be mid i think it's going to be mid a 500 composite and demarini has not made a good composite bb core bat in quite a long time in my opinion uh they have a lot of good alloy bats but we'll see man if this is good it's gonna surprise me and it's gonna make for a really epic video so there we have the 2025 zen bb core from demarini it looks okay i guess when you think the 2025 icon is dropping uh i can actually tell you let me look at my calendar here bb core um because the u-trip is out all right i got some release dates for you guys how about let's take a little break from our last four unboxings i'm going to give you guys some uh some 2025 bat release dates so louisville slugger bb core is all releasing on august 21st uh the meta prime that i that heavy blue meta prime u-trip also releases on the 21st two days after that it's funny how they compete so closely the cad x2 composite u triple sa and bb core is releasing on august 23rd uh and then to your question the next week wednesday august 29th is the rawlings 2025 bb core release when we're gonna see the clout the icon and the mock for 2025 and then beyond that that's all i have on my calendar right now um so we'll see man this i might get in trouble for showing this so you're welcome sorry for me all right let's see what we got here atlas or goods depends bro uh if you're a home run guy probably the probably the goods if you're a younger guy or you're more of a you know barrel to the ball gap to gap type of guy probably atlas oh okay i'm gonna wait i'm gonna wait i'm gonna wait for that that one's crazy that's actually not even a release yet there's some more kind of goss we gotta go into with that one i'm curious if anyone even knows what that bat was that i just showed if you know what that bat was tell me in the chat i i doubt anybody knows what that that is the corn dog corn dog is the best guess so far all right uh a couple new super chats feels like every live i hear i'm not supposed to show this but select power still for the win respect that's true bro this is you know my son's turning 12 in october just started swinging to drop five what would you recommend the meta prime or the zen dude the the meta prime's just heavy bro i would be cautious to swing that bat until you see our review on it and maybe it's glowing but uh this out of those two options you gave me the zen if i have more options i'd probably tell you the icon or the high fire the drop five hype fire is the hottest baseball bat that's ever been made period so take that for what it's worth but yeah meta prime uh or the zen the zen i gotta show you guys this pile this volcano of bats i'm creating right now all right oh so i have swung this back this looks man on camera this looks a lot better than uh than in person but let me know you guys think this is the new another new release from marucci the 200 marucci code so a one piece alloy it has that vibration uh reduction handle i think this is probably going to be a lot more like a cat six or something like that or maybe you can you can think of it a little bit as like an f5 with a vibration dampening handle it looks pretty cool i'll give it a six two uh my prediction for performance i have been told legit straight from marucci this is a victus vibe with a little more swing weight and a little less barrel so typically if you have more swing weight you'd want more barrel so i'm gonna say this bat might be mid because it just sounds like a little bit worse version of the victus vibe which is excellent so again the victus vibe is that kind of cram looking bat and also there's a repaint version that is the pencil one piece two hundred dollars again i said earlier in the stream that's going to be one of the single best budget bats of the year so there we have the marucci code i think it'll be solid i just think it's going to be overshadowed by the victus vibe which is also a marucci bat what's the atlas 2025 retail price anything other than 350 would really shock me 300 would be sick 400 would be ridiculous especially because it was literally 300 just two years ago all right three bats left i gotta walk okay i don't know if anyone guessed what that that was by the way dimarini maple composite wood bat you're right you guys don't know the name though he knows that's sick all right this will be a fun i think i'm allowed to show this too so okay next bat all right i think what we have left one of these bats is which i was just talking about so i'm going to try to find that first that's not it will there be another shrinking bb core i hope so dude all right this is it this is the victus vibe bb core which we saw in usa and utrip in usa i've gotten really good feedback on this bat in utrip it's a dud in my opinion the caddx alloy is better but if you're in utrip guys unless you're a little little kid you need to be swinging composite check out our video we just posted earlier today you heard it here first the the look is okay seven five this is going to be the best budget bb core bat of 2025 that is my bold prediction this feels shockingly close to an atlas for 200 i'm just going to say that i'm not even going to expand on that guys you need a moderator i don't really know what that means but i'll tend to agree with you all right in our uh our last unboxing before this last one would bat junkies stick around for this this looks really good i think this is a clean looking bat i'm going to give this an eight one the new easton rope bb core if it's a repaint i'd kind of be bummed because this bat was kind of mid last year it wasn't bad it was just kind of mid best drop oh yeah yeah we're gonna do a video on that pretty soon best drop eight pg bat for 12 you drop five hitters it's still the icon guys it is still the icon this bat looks great the easton rope but it's going to be 500 bucks and it's i don't think it's going to be as good as atlas or the icon or the bone saver hybrid or the select power so we'll see man i'm going to give us some hacks i do think easton is cooking with some future composite bb core stuff i've seen some prototypes and they are pretty sick massive barrels uh this also though was you know one of those few bats that you did see a few of in college baseball so looks really cool looks really cool got up in the eights all right we got one more would you recommend a 30 inch cat x2 connect or a cat x2 composite for a 10u elite hitter composite for sure um the downside any downside to the connect yeah the downside will be that so uh here let's see i'll give you guys since you brought that up i'll give you guys another look this is actually i have a drop eight version right here like that's pretty hollow sounding i am very optimistic and excited for this bat i think this is going to be one of the best composite utero bats of 2025 keep in mind i'm saying that without ever swinging it i'm just responding to a little bit of hype that i've heard around so it might suck it might be super fragile it might be super rigid and stiff and unforgiving like the old caddx composite but uh i'm literally going to swing this right after we end the stream here in a few minutes okay our last bat here ladies and gentlemen we did a a few videos a while ago on the dimarini corndog and dimarini sugar daddy and asked for something like that back from dimarini and they have i'll call this like a soft launch the name is the best part of this the dimarini the woods like the goods super super cool so we have a full wood barrel a complete maple wood barrel and literally this is what's crazy literally like of of the goods handle a full nothing wood about it a legit metal bat cf zen composite handle so really really interesting build and cat and here's the issue that happened with this bat apparently this was going to be a big release from dimarini and yeah it looks more yes this is going to be indestructible essentially maybe there's a telescoping issue but like no like this is going to be indestructible um apparently there was an issue when they tried to release this bat where you know they've been in the news a lot lately apparently perfect game so pg who's like the biggest tournament organizer for wood bat stuff apparently i didn't even realize that but they're massive with like if you're going to a wood bat tournament high likelihood it's going to be a perfect game tournament they are actually not approving this as a wood bat simply because it has a complete metal bat handle which on one hand is you know very understandable like if if you're gonna swing a wood bat like it better be a wood bat but how are you gonna let the bomb bat go every freaking kid in those pg tournaments is swinging a bomb back and a bomb bat is that much freaking wood surrounding basically what otherwise is like a composite db core back it's freaking polyurethane foam if you know what that is i hardly know what that is that's just what people told me and literally a carbon fiber sleeve and then a little bit of wood on the outside in my opinion this is more indicative of actual wood so unfortunately this has not been approved at the moment by perfect game so it's actually not even been released yet i mean i'd love to see it released in some aspect i've hit with it a little bit it feels pretty good but um so there you guys have it the d marini the woods which is an unreleased wood composite from d marini because pg has not yet approved it i think they're kind of beefing over that so all right one hour 17 bats unboxed uh if if you're just joining you can re-watch the stream some of the highlights we show the 2025 atlas all the new rolling stuff uh i'm gonna go film and review the caddx composite 2 right now and i'll probably try to try to post it and edit it pretty soon here and uh you guys are the best seriously appreciate you love you guys um we'll see you soon
