Your thoughts on this Jorge Posada bat....
http://cgi.ebay.com/JORGE-POSADA-200...QQcmdZViewItem
Doesnt look legit to me.....
A) Tape is way too wide, Posada uses a thinner tape.
B) Tape is way too white. Posada uses a ton of pine tar and no gloves so the tape should be filthy. I dont see any pine tar that the seller claims is there. Posada uses tar like he has stock in the company.
C) Bat has number 20 on the knob - Posada doesnt number his bat knobs, they are left blank.
I welcome anyone's thoughts.......

I would welcome a reply. It may just be that the bat is legit, it just doesn't seem to match any of Posada's use characteristics that I have seen.

eGameUsed is Chris Boyd and since he posts his name and telephone number to his posts I don't think it would be inappropriate to list it here, 713-385-1155. Better yet, his email is eGameUsed@comcast.net
I have never dealt directly with Mr. Boyd, but I do have a Jersey that I recently acquired from another forum member that came from him that was completely as stated.
Let us all know what you find out or learn about it.

Chris,
If you read this, I'd love to hear your thoughts. If you have a photo match, I'd be interested in seeing it.
My problem comes from the fact that I have been seeing many Posada bats on ebay here lately and quite a few of those are shaky, at best. Legitimate gamers seem to be rare. If there is something about this bat that I'm missing, please tell me as I'd like to update my database.
Regards,
Jim

Regarding the Posada bat I posted, has Steiner hologram and matching Steiner letter....not sure if that means anything.

Re: Your thoughts on this Jorge Posada bat....
Ducks - any pine tar on the Posada bat?
It looks "game ready". Is that glare from the light or does it have ball marks? Its odd that although the tape looks correct, its clean and white. If the bat has ballmarks and is reported to be game used, the tape should show signs of pine tar. Perhaps a BP bat?
As for Cano and Sheffield, I'm not as familar with their habits, although the tape wrap looks good on the Sheffield.
