The CAT8 is Marucci's one-piece alloy — a proven bat that holds up over a full season. Built with AZ105 Alloy (the strongest aluminum in Marucci's lineup), which allows for thinner barrel walls, a higher response rate, and better durability than previous alloy models. Ring-free barrel eliminates dead spots and improves flex. The 2nd Gen AV2 Anti-Vibration Knob cuts down on sting significantly for an alloy bat. Drop 10, balanced swing, 2 3/4" barrel. Worth considering if your player plays year-round or goes through bats quickly.
