Re: MLB Pink Bats

I've been kkeping my eye on a few of those bats. I have a few particular bats that I want. Just don't know which one I'm going to end up with whether it's which one or none.

Re: MLB Pink Bats

The 2nd Giambi bat went for $700 tonite.Fantastic for the Komen Foundation to be sure,but..to keep it in perspective,you could buy a Mike Schmidt,Reggie Jackson,or Dave Winfield bat for that money...

Re: MLB Pink Bats

Bob,

Do you believe 100% that that is the bat Dunn used to hit the 2 HR's with? A few years ago I was at the game when Bobby Crosby hit a HR using a pink bat and they auctioned off a game issued one becasue it had no use on it. Last year Daric Barton hit a HR with one but the issued one again got auctioned off. I know the Dunn bat has marks on it, but it could have been from his other AB's.

Re: MLB Pink Bats

And me.I think $500 a piece for either of the 2 Giambi bats available is a bit much for someone who's hitting .195.

Re: MLB Pink Bats

Been following the pink Mother's Day Bats on MLB. He, I've followed Dunn for years. Love collecting the guy. Yep, he hit 2 homers with that bat that is in auction. Uncracked and signed, just like Bob likes 'em. MLB authenticated. I get it.

However........as in anything I collect, I have to be real with it. Somebody is about to pay over $600 for that bat, and it won't be me. That's alot of dough. A good cause, but I have kids to feed. I also have to be real about the fact Dunn played 1st last night and committed 2 errors. Real about him hitting .260. These factors do not make a $600+ bat.

I'll catch some flack on this I'm sure... but I can live without a pink bat.

I have to agree. While I'd like to add one to my collection one of these days I'm not really willing to pay the prices that a lot of these pink bats go for. I collect Jimmy Rollins and I know his pink bat would go for way more then $600. To much for me even though the money is going to a worthy cause. To be honest I didn't even see any players bats being auctioned this year that I'm interested in.

Re: Pink Bats Return

For anyone looking to buy jeter's bat, he used it ONLY in the 1st inning. After that, he used his standard LS bat.
