Rawlings Baseball Bats

Rawlings is one of the oldest names in the baseball equipment industry. Unfortunately, they're the Rodney Dangerfield of baseball bats. They get no respect. You rarely see a Rawlings bat on a little league, high school and most definitely a college field. In a nutshell, it's not cool to have a Rawlings bat.

Rawlings and Louisville have very similar baseball bat philosophies. The stiff handle one piece bat is the center of their universe. Here's what Rawlings is offering in 2009:

• Rush Composite Lite - One piece, 100% composite bat featuring a stiff handle. Rawlings has entered the composite bat category and, as they should be, is priced below the top composite bats of its competitors. But it's not priced low enough so I'd go with the Omaha Composite if you must have a 100% composite bat and don't want to pay top dollar. Plus, Rawlings doesn't even provide any hype for the material of this bat. No "pitch black" composite, "double weave", etc. This is unheard of in the industry. We must have spin!
• Rush Gold Lite - Two piece, composite handle, alloy barrel bat that features a stiff handle and "liquid metal" allow. I can't recommend this one either as there are better options.
• Plasma - One piece, 100% alloy bat with a stiff handle and Rawlings "liquid metal" alloy. Okay for the younger player, but otherwise I'd pass on this one as well.

Now, I have seen players hit the ball a long way with a Rawlings bat. But as mentioned, I'd only purchase a Rawlings bat for a young player or if you're on a budget.
