    Re: X-Bats earns MLB suspension

    Nice photo!

    In fact I just made him a new model this morning. I took the E55 and put a C271 style knob on it for him. I'm calling it the E55M. I'm getting lazy with model numbers here lately...

      If X-Bats is suspended from MLB then why am I seeing so many players still using them in Spring Training this year??

        Could be bats left over from last season... or, could be new bats that are OK to use in exhibition games, but can't be used during the regular season. Will be interesting to see if anyone is swinging X-Bat on/after opening day.

          I saw Xbat out when I was visiting I think Detroit, they are back in the good graces of MLB. I guess they paid they're fine. Also saw Abat (who used to turn Xbat's bats), Carolina club, and some of the smaller companies out and about. It was a fun experience meeting all the players, I must admit I'm glad to be back home...

            I'm holding here a picture that was in the newspaper of Jhonny Peralta breaking his X-Bat during a game with the White Sox on Thursday, April 3, so I guess either they're being allowed or Jhonny is looking for a fine.

              Well it looks like Miguel Cabrera is using something else. In today's game he went up with 3 different bats the last one was a Sam's Bat
