2026 Demarini “The Goods” BBCOR (-3) 31/28 31" 28oz drop 3 (NEW)

Bought 2 due to what I thought was a defect on the grip (see pictures). Grip on both bats was the same so determined not to be a defect. Bat still in wrapper. Hard to find bat with lots of pop. End-loaded feel for power hitters. As the heaviest-swinging hybrid bat in the DeMarini BBCOR family, the 2026 The Goods (-3) BBCOR Baseball Bat empowers strong high school and college hitters to swing big for extra-base hits. The Goods returns its signature X14 Alloy Barrel – a massive profile made famous by its ability to do damage. New for the 2026 model, an Upgraded Direct Connection offers a redesigned interface between the barrel and revamped 1375 Composite Handle for improved durability and a stiff feel without sacrificing comfort. The Goods delivers improved stability and dampens vibration on contact. Upgraded Direct Connection - Redesigned interface between barrel and handle improves durability and creates a stiff feel while maintaining forgiveness on contact. The Goods X14 Alloy Barrel - A dominant alloy barrel with a massive profile and huge sweet spot to maximize performance. 1375 Composite Handle - Designed specifically for The Goods, our stiffest handle uses thicker composite material to prioritize energy transfer, helping power hitters get the most out of their swing. Tremor End Cap - Strong material to optimize barrel performance and maximize power.

The Goods series from DeMarini is available in BBCOR, USA, and USSSA and features a hybrid "Half + Half" construction, combining an alloy barrel with a composite handle. Designed for power hitters, it offers an end-loaded swing weight and effective energy transfer. With its X14 Alloy Barrel, The Goods ensures maximum stiffness and a large sweet spot, resulting in exceptional pop.

“

The Goods is a top performer and the newest model is the most expensive hybrid bat on the market. It's an end loaded bat for that power hitter in your lineup. The alloy is strong, and it has a good whip to it. Overall, The Goods is in the top five in the hybrids for both BBCOR and youth. The youth was less popular because it was a heavier-feeling.
