### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* This bat has a fantastic feel, sound, and performance on miss-hits. It boasts one of the largest sweet spots in BBCOR. Although it lacks feedback, it is very easy to swing.
* Great feel and pop. Although I usually change grips, the stock grip on this bat is solid. The durability is very impressive as well, as the bat has already outlasted most others.
* No failures on Meta bats except cosmetic chips. They perform better than new. High school varsity team used 32-3 for 2 years without issues. Change grip tape yearly and keep hitting!

**CONS**



* The finish will chip if hit against spikes.
* It's expensive.... and not crazy about the color.
* This bat has no pop.


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USSSA


### Expert Notes (Parker)

The Louisville Slugger Meta is still a slightly newer model. The meta is similar to the DeMarini CF which offers a lightweight composite handle with a huge barrel made for every sort of hitter. A popular series that offers great jump-off-the-barrel when you hit the sweet spot and keeps the sting off your hands when the ball is missed on the cap or handle.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**

-   My son hit three home runs with the Goods bat at a college prospect camp this weekend. He says the current version feels amazing and is the best one yet.
    
-   I upgraded to this bat from my broken 2022 Goods. It has phenomenal pop and is the best in the Goods line.
    
-   This bat bangs!!! I bought this bat three weeks ago and this barrel is huge!
    

**CONS**

-   My son loved this bat from day one. After three weeks of use the plastic piece where the shaft meets the barrel cracked. Definitely expect something better than this for $450. Haven't started the warranty process yet so we'll see how that goes.
    
-   The bat handle now telescopes into the barrel after the junction cracked. We had expected better quality for the price and it's hard to accept a replacement that arrives 2-3 weeks later at best.
    
-   Bat bought 2 months ago broke when I dropped it. It's a good bat but not very durable. Connector piece broke and it telescoped.
    

  

### Certification: USSSA, USA, BBCOR

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Goods is a top performer and the 2024 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.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**

-   I've always used Easton gear for baseball. Got this bat for my 9-year-old and it's impressive. Good pop and similar to the Easton Ghost, but with more power.
    
-   Nearly every player on our son's team uses or borrows this bat. It's popular because it hits home runs well.
    
-   I am 12 years old and I hit a home run in my last game with my Rawlings bat. Looking forward to next year!
    

**CONS**

-   I got two bats for my kids, a 29-11 and a 30-10. Both broke even though we used them properly and never misused them. I had to send them back to the manufacturer.
    
-   My son loved the bat, it improved his confidence and hitting skills. However, it cracked unexpectedly despite following the instructions. We're disappointed with the quality, and my son was heartbroken.
    
-   Although the bat was great while it worked, it's disappointing that it failed after just one year, especially not at the barrel. There seem to be manufacturing and durability issues with this expensive bat.
    

  

### Certification: USA, USSSA, BBCOR

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Easton ADV 360 is a two-piece composite bat. It has a light swing and big barrel. Perfect for the younger hitter. I think it is popular because of the paint job, which is bright neon yellow. It is more of a look than a performance bat, but still a very good bat that doesn’t have a huge amount of breakage. It's an average bat for either Little League or USSSA.

Here is a list that details the progression of this series, highlighting the main features and advancements with each new model.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity) 

**PROS**



* A kid in a slump hit his first-ever home run with this bat. It arrived just in time for a playoff game and worked great for my average-sized 11-year-old son - not too heavy.
* After breaking in this bat properly, it really performs well! My son uses it for our USSSA 8U Travel team and you can easily tell when it's hit on the sweet spot. The bat is also forgiving on mis-hits, often resulting in faster grounders than usual (for this age group) and very high pop.
* This bat has more pop than most USA bats, similar to BBCOR/USSA. We broke it in with tee hits, and my son hit missiles and balls over the fence on the first day. Expensive, but worth it for avid players.

**CONS**



* Great indoor results with the new non-Easton bat during coach pitch pre-season. Disappointing mid-season pop-up infield hits. I've always used Easton before, won't try other brands again.
* Great pop, but poor performance when missing sweet spot. Treated with care, but still cracked in Apr. Son upset I didn't allow use in cold weather, with heavy balls or pitching machines. It was mostly used as game bat last year, did not last into 2nd season.
* My son's bat barrel cracked after hitting his first HR, leaving him without a bat during All Stars and elimination series.


### **Certification**: BBCOR, USA, USSSA


### Expert Notes (Parker)

The DeMarini CF is a classic model that goes back to 2015 and offers one of the hottest models (2017) but is limited in use as its performance surpasses bat standards. Overall, the CF reflects a classic design which has been the same since 2015. A two-piece composite that offers a large barrel and sweet spot with a lightweight handle that creates a whip-like feel to it with the flexible connection between the handle and barrel.

### Top competitors comparison: [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709) and the [Louisville Slugger Solo](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/louisville-slugger/solo/l7816)  
  
The rivals include the Easton ADV 360 and the Louisville Slugger Solo.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

  

**PROS**

-   Great for kids who need to "feel the barrel" during their swing. The ball jumps off this bat well. It has never collapsed and provides enough feedback to know how you hit it. Vibration is only felt when hitting the handle.
    
-   "My 12-year-old son upgraded to a Marucci Cat 9 -5 bat from a 30" -8 bat and is hitting great with it. Although the bat is heavier, it is well-balanced and solid. Highly recommended for kids upgrading to a -5."
    
-   Bought the Cat 9 BBCOR bat for my 13-year-old son. It's well-balanced and has good pop for a one-piece. Vibration-resistant knob helps with miss hits. My son loves it and is hitting the ball well.
    

**CONS**

-   Good bat for my 10-year-old, but didn't hold up well in New England cold spring. Dead after one AAU season despite hard hits and dingers. Would have given 5 stars if it lasted longer.
    
-   My son used this bat for 1 season and it has multiple dents in it. He is 12 and weighs about 70 pounds. Thought I would get more than 1 season out of the bat.
    
-   Bought a bat for my 6-year-old son a year ago. It's good but lacks the power and balance of CATX Aluminum. Looking for sales to buy CATX.

They took the same design from the CAT8 and strengthened the CAT9 with a stronger alloy to avoid any denting issues. It's a very good, durable bat. The CAT9 will be a bit heavier than the CAT8; it's a better bat for stronger kids. The first generation of the CAT9 came out with a gray, black, and red paint job. The second generation they called the Past Time, which was red, white, and blue. It's the same bat, but a different paint job. The second bat was more popular simply because of how it looked. Everyone likes the American Flag with its Stars and Stripes.

While the DeMarini Voodoo is known for its two-piece hybrid design that emphasizes a balanced swing for hitters who want both power and speed, and the Louisville Slugger Select PWR offers a three-piece design for enhanced swing control and reduced vibration, the Cat 9 Connect specializes in delivering a potent combination of speed, power, and precision, making it a formidable choice for players aiming for home runs.

* This bat is a great buy with a lot of pop and no stinging. It has a fast swing and is well-balanced, improving confidence. Kids will love it for little league. 
* Well balanced, no shock, decent pop. My 9 year old likes the added two inches compared to his previous bat. Likes that it doesn’t rattle his hands. Very pleased for the price 

**CONS**



* I purchased this bat for my 9-year-old son to use in little league. Sadly, it did not last long and got cracked in the same weak spot as many other bats.

* My 8 year old son hit very well with it until is snapped in half.

The CAT9 Connect is going to be in the same market as the Select Power, The Goods, and the Voodoo. It's a two-piece hybrid alloy barrel with a composite handle. It's a top-three bat for me. Very good performer and very popular. Just a great overall product.

CAT9 Composite

## Marucci CAT9 Composite Baseball Bat

The Marucci CAT 9 Composite bat represents a significant advancement in Marucci's approach to building bats for players who prefer the feel and performance of fully composite construction. Unlike its alloy counterparts within the CAT series, the CAT 9 Composite provides a massive barrel and balanced swing. With a philosophy deeply rooted in the insights and needs of actual players, Marucci’s Cat 9 Composite bat showcases the brand’s proficiency at using cutting-edge materials to elevate the performance of players at any age.

**Perfect bat for:** Both contact and power hitters who don’t mind a barrel-heavy bat.

### Top competitors comparison: [DeMarini CF Zen](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/demarini/cf-zen-2020/l8432) and the [Easton ADV 360](https://sidelineswap.com/shop/baseball/bats/easton/adv-360/l59709)

The Marucci Cat 9 Composite shines with its use of multi-directional composite materials, enabling a level of responsiveness and barrel performance that's hard to match. While the DeMarini CF Zen is praised for its consistently strong performance across the barrel and the Easton ADV 360 offers revolutionary 360-degree barrel tuning, the Cat 9 Composite distinguishes itself with a superior balance between speed, power, and comfort, courtesy of its meticulous engineering and vibration-dampening connection technology. This makes the Cat 9 Composite a top choice for youth players aiming to elevate their game with a bat that delivers fluidity and force in equal measure.

### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The CAT9 Composite comes in two designs across two generations. The first, released in 2021, is gray, black, and red. And then it came out in red, white, blue, and gray. The first model was a more powerful, higher-performing bat. It has more exit velocity and is a hotter bat than the 2nd gen. Very durable, with very little breakage. Marucci's, across the board, have been good bats in terms of quality; they seem to last. Whether you're a power hitter or a small kid, the CAT9 Composite does very well.

Speed Alloy

### Expert Notes
Speed is indeed the name of the game for one of Easton’s flagship alloy bat series. The most recent 2022 Easton Speed bat has a one-piece composite construction, and
features the company’s Hyperlite material, which makes for an astonishingly fast swing. And while this release is beloved by us and others, many hitters have told me that
nothing beats the 2019 Easton Speed release, which became famous for its green handle, black barrel, and outstanding production at every level and age group. Regardless of which model you use, one thing is clear: hitters craft a special connection with their Easton Speed bats. Swinging a Speed might be all you need to accelerate your game.

### What people are saying (edited for clarity and brevity)

**PROS**



* This bat is one of the best options available for young players. It is USA-regulated and commonly used in little league. It offers excellent control and feel and has a large sweet spot for hitting home runs.
* I bought a new bat for my son a month ago since he had outgrown his old one. The new bat is longer and heavier, and he's happy with it. His game has improved since he started using it.
* Marucci's bat is lightweight, durable, and has an old-school sound when solid contact is made. My son has been hitting great with it.

**CONS**



* I like Marucci bats, but this is the 3rd time I've bought one that's heavier than listed. Bought a 28" 17 oz 2022 USA Cat for my 8 y/o son, but it weighed 19.3 oz. Will keep trying with Marucci, but they all tend to be heavier than listed.
* Purchased a 29” 18oz. bat, but it weighed 20.3 oz.
* I bought this product for my son and when I asked him to rate it, he gave it four stars. He explained that he didn't give it five stars because he feels too much vibration upon hits and it doesn't have the best pop.


### **Certification**: USA


### Expert Notes ([Tony from BatExperts](https://sidelineswap.com/batexperts))

The Marucci CAT is designed for Little League. It has that USA stamp, which means it has a lightweight feel and good control. The CAT has an affordable price point, so it won't break the bank. A lot of parents get this bat specifically because it's a quality bat with a good bang for the buck.

5150 Alloy

### Expert Notes
The Rawlings 5150 series is the ultimate workman’s bat. The most recent 2023 Rawlings 5150 furthered the end loaded, heavier feel and extra stiffness that we loved its predecessors for, while adding a brand new bat grip that hitters I’ve spoken to say provides unmatched comfort at the plate. Although some of these hitters also miss the neon green 5150 releases from 2016 and 2017, the model’s evolution can be clearly traced through this bat’s commitment to one piece, alloy bats that care about performance over cosmetics. The Rawlings 5150 is a blue-collar, power hitter’s bat that I’d recommend for anyone who’s looking to pad their home run stats.
