I know I've seen it on other gamers of his, but does anyone know what the "JCMS" stands for?

That's the only thing that really makes sense. Or the only thing that anyone besides mauer would know

Woah! That was the furthest thing from my mind. Interesting if that's right.

What is his grandpa Jake's middle name? Possibly Jake C Mauer Sr.? I know he is very close with his grandfather.

Could you provide an example because I have never seen this on one of his bats other than the one Andy picked up on eBay.

Thanks.

Joe's dad given name is Donald Charles Mauer but they call him jake and he is a junior.

so Jake Charles Mauer Sr? very plausable. Joe's grandfather played with the Chicago White sox organization and is the biggest critique and fan of Joe.

I'm with Chris. I've never seen a Mauer with this before. I saw it on ebay and didn't bid because of this. Mauer and Morneau's bats are the most shared with their teammates and minor leaguers. I'm not convinced this is his bat. If we don't have an answer by then, I'll ask him in Spring Training next month.

No I cannot, and if by Andy you mean Andy Benish, this is probably the same bat since I bought it from him. I asked him and he doesn't know what the "JCMS" stands for either. It has "32.5 Mauer" written on the knob so I hope it's Mauer's bat. If not, I'll be very upset because I paid good money for it.

Yes, please ask him and share with us.

I have also owned and handled several and have never seen it either. I find it hard to believe that he would do it to one random bat.

Does the bat have his name on the barrell or just the knob? You provide only a photo of the center label. You seem unsure that its Mauer bat.

Re: "JCMS" inscription on Mauer gamer

I saw the bat in question on Ebay. It is a Mauer Issued bat. Its specifications are correct. Knob stampings, name on barrel, etc. What is in question, is that Mauer has not put that on any of his other bats that we know of. So it is believed that this bat may have been used by someone else.

Thanks for the clarification.

Just curious. Any photos of Mauer swinging a bat on Father's Day? Seem like a single day event.

Re: "JCMS" inscription on Mauer gamer

The bat is a 08 bat and was more than likely used in spring training as the seller obtained it from the Fort Myers Training Complex, so that doesnt jive either.
