Ive seen these bats a couple times signed and inscribed, I have been unable to actually see a photo of him using a bat with this barrel design. Does anyone have an explanation, or any input on these. Thanks!

I believe they all have just had white tape wrapped around the barrel? It is still the two tone black barrel bat. It is probably a bat with either no name on the barrel or a player other than Cano.

USED DURING BP ONLY!
It is considered a Training Bat, Probably alittle Heavier then the Bat he uses for Games to Help keep his hands Quick (As if he needs Help)!
NOT GAME USED!
It is a Japanese Baseball thing, and since SSK is a Japanese Sports Company, they made this Bat for CANO to Use During BP.
Similarly NIKE Made BP Bats for Kaz Matsui, and MIZUNO makes BP Bats for ICHIRO.

I was able to find a photo of him using one for BP. I guess that helps him sleep at night when he inscribes them "game used". There sure are a LOT of Cano "game used" bats out there from a Nov 2010 "MLB" signing. Many of them are these odd BP bats. I'd suggest finding a Cano Holo or Steiner bat, that's just me I guess.

Those white barrel bats are BP bats ONLY. I have no idea why he would put "game used" on it. I wouldn't waste the money on them

The seller is a forum member; I'd like to hear his take on it.

Also, the bat has an MLB hologram. I can't make out the numbers from the pictures, but I'm curious to find out what it says with regard to game or BP use.
