Easton ADV Hype BBCOR Baseball Bat

The Easton ADV Hype is a two-piece composite BBCOR bat with a very flexible handle and a sweet spot that is more forgiving than most aluminum or hybrid designs at this level. The flexible construction creates a whippy, lively feel through the zone that suits hitters who generate power from bat speed rather than pure strength. Swing weight runs slightly above neutral, which gives the bat a bit more presence on squared contact without making it feel sluggish to start. Durability is on the lower end for composite, so treat this as a game bat rather than a daily practice bat. It needs proper break-in before reaching peak performance.
