2007 gamer missing MLB logo and TPX

[metsbats]

I just picked up a 2007 game used Jorge Posada bat which does not have the MLB and TPX labeling on the back of the barrel.

Did HB remove these from the back of the barrels during the 2007 season?

Thanks

Maybe BMH could be of better assistance here, but I believe that some players specifically ask for their bats to made without the MLB and TPX logo on the back of the barrel.

Need a picture of the bat. Jorge gets the TPX logo on the back of his bats. What usually happens is the TPX logo is the last operation in the Pro bat department. Sometimes the guys doing the branding forgets to put it on and that person is the same that packs the bats so he doesn't realize he did it. I'm surprised we don't make more mistakes than what we do.

I have a 2001 Curt Schilling Diamondbacks bat, a Louisville Slugger, with no logos. I think it's the only post-2000 LS I have that's like that.

BMH,
Here's a photo of the bat. Appreciate any insight.

That's a Posada bat that didn't get the TPX logo on the back by accident. Very dark FT on the bat just the way he likes it.

Thanks for the feedback BHM.

P320M is the model number. Does the "M" mean maple or something else?

BMH - you lost me on the "FT" comment - can you elaborate?

I think it means Flame Tempering? Flame Treatment? Something to do with flames since that thing looks toasted!
