For some reason Javier Baez annoys many people outside of Chicago Cubs fans because as it turns out enjoying baseball isn't allowed or something like that. Anyway, if you thought baseball traditionalists hated him before, then get ready for the stupid reactions if Baez starts using a bat that changes colors.
Yeah, you read that correctly. Baez is one of three players who were shown a new bat that's being developed by a Japanese company.
Via Baseball America.
The bat appears as a traditional natural-wood bat, but changes to color when brought into the sunlight. The idea has batters taking a bat out of the dugout and having it change colors from natural to blue on the way to home plate. The bat then returns to the natural wood color when in the shade. SSK revealed the bat first to its pro players, Javier Baez, Ronald Acuna Jr. and Fernando Tatis Jr. “Watching their excitement about these bats during spring training when it was a prototype was a great indicator of the success we’re looking to achieve with this product that gives all ballplayers a way to showcase their own personality,” Kucich says.Swag off the charts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jP6acYLdEE You can even buy one if you want for $150. Need Baez to start using these bats just to make already angry people more mad online.
