[OaklandAsFan]

Today I had a pretty good day in Phoenix.
4 bats
A diablo pro model bat from Jeff Baisley (Oakland A's)
Marucci Donny Lucy (Chicago White Sox)
Old Hickory Nolan Reimold (Baltimore Orioles)
Controlling the Game Andrew McCutchen (Pittsburg Pirates)

Anyone ever heard of this Controlling the game company??

Re: Arizona Fall League Pickups

First you need to download the pictures to your computer(download as a jpeg file). Then you go to attached files and pick the pictures you would like to show in the forum.

Re: Arizona Fall League Pickups

I'm sorry if I was a little vague. Post a reply and you will see the attach files and then you browse your computer for the right pictures. Hopw that helps, if not I hope someone can explain more easily.

What is the size of the image? There's a limit on the size of the image you post which could possibly be the problem.

Re: Arizona Fall League Pickups

Don't use the big size.

Re: Arizona Fall League Pickups

Here lemme give it a shot

1 pic is of the 4 bats I picked up today the other 2 pics are of my bats that are crammed into a very small apartment for right now so they arent displayed nearly how I had them or want them. The bat rack has another 17 bats on the other side as well.

Re: Arizona Fall League Pickups

Controlling the Game is a newer bat company, that I do no not think compares to any of the other bats. A rep sent us some samples at Spring training this year and we gave them out to some of the guys and found that they were basically worthless and seemed to be soft and not last long. I didnt see but a handful of them come through the clubhouses this year, so I do not think many would be using them. Seems odd that someone like McCutchen would be using it instead of LS, which he had when he came through last year.

He has been using them the entire fall league. Started with some black ones not on to natural. I see what you are talking about with the softness of it. On the top of the bat where the cup is it is dented like he hit one of the end of the bat and dented the bat into the cupping but didnt break it.

Re: Arizona Fall League Pickups

I believe this is the first time I have seen a branded Diablo bat. Is this new this year?

Re: Arizona Fall League Pickups

I was wondering about that also. The only other Diablo bats I have are from Eric Chavez but I have seen several but never branded like this one.
