posada bat
Hey:
Just won the following Posada bat. How does it look? I'm not too familiar with his stuff, so all comments would be appreciated. Steiner cert. looks good.
Thanks.

Re: posada bat
This is a typical Luis Sojo tape job. I have also seen Sojo's bats with Posada-type tape jobs. More than just a couple. My feeling is that they shared bats similar to Tino M. and Boggs when they played together with the Yanks.

Re: posada bat
Thanks. So, I guess either Sojo/Posada could have used the bat?
Does the wear on the handle underneath the tape indicate anything (indicative of who may have used the bat first)?
Here's the cert. that was missing.
Oh, I believe I purchased your Tino bat. Looking forward to it!

Re: posada bat
I'ld be willing to bet that you are the proud owner of a Jorge Posada game model bat which has been prepped and used by Enrique Wilson. That tape job and shaving of the handle look similar to other taped jobs of his that have ben on e-bay recently

Re: posada bat
Getting boring, but I'll say it for the 1000th time, STEINER HAS NO CLUE!!! The bat was probaly used by someone with a contract with another bat company. You can see on the picture that a ring was added in the middle handle. This is often done by players with Rawlings contract who want to use something else. If this bat did not have the Steiner letter, I doubt anyone would have touched it !!

Re: posada bat
From the pictures bat looks to be from 1999, Wilson was not on Roster so it looks like maybe Sojo. I have also included 2 pictures, 1 shows Sojo using tape on his bat and the other, from what I can see, maybe someone with a more advanced photo program can zoom in, looks to be Sojo using a Louisville (TPX Logo?) and you can see he added the ring on the handle. The bat in question is also a Louisville with an added ring.
