Re: Creative bat knob decals

Finally getting around to posting on this. I am a big fan of unique bat knobs.

Got this bat from Yonder Alonso at A's spring training. I guess he is still using them during spring training. Are they still banned by MLB?

Re: Creative bat knob decals

I'm guessing MLB has taken a relaxed stance on the bat knob decal standardization? I saw this while watching the Yankees at Red Sox game yesteday. I have to admit, at first I thought Travis Shaw might have a clause in his contract to have every April 20th off and a no trade clause to every team except for the Rockies and Mariners The strange part is that while Shaw is from Ohio he went to Kent State and not Ohio State. I wonder how his fellow Alumni feel about him repping the Buckeyes??

Adam Eaton. This is the first I have seen for him. All to date have been Sox logo with 1. Wonder if this was from the 4th of July game.

Manny Machado has a nice customer knob sticker for this season.

Yeah...this sounds like some of the asinine edicts the No Fun League hands down.

It sounds like MLB reversed their decision, and personalized bat knob decals are again allowed!

Just my opinion, but it seems like MLB is kinda getting down in the weeds on this issue. I think they are pretty cool and I like the creativity that some are using.
Personally I would rather see MLB enforce uniform policy, mainly players that wear their hat off to one side.

I called bat manufacture, and they told me that the equipment managers are the ones that order and install them.

I am so glad that I got this Kolten Wong bat last year. I saw a photo of Kolten using a bat with the sticker during batting practice. I was hoping to see it during the regular season, but that won't happen now.

Re: Creative bat knob decals

Yes it's true. MLB has banned personalized bat knob decals. They can use generic team decals with player number though.
