Louisville Slugger's 2025 Atlas is like the 2024 version but with a more tapered knob. They've had so much success with it they are not only going to stick with it, but stick with trying to convince people they haven't changed the barrel, and our EV tests suggested that might not be entirely true. It's a solid if not overhyped bat.

The Easton Rope BBCOR for 2025 is a 2-piece composite bat with a hybrid design, a composite handle, and barrel with a large sweet spot. It has some tech in the barrel that makes it unique and continues to impress us even though it is highly underrated bat. There are no changes from the 2024 version of the bat, as far as we can tell.

BEST 2024 BBCOR

The 2024 DeMarini The Goods released in mid August 2023. The bat has a $50 price point increase that's arguably justified by the new expanded warranty (offering multiple replacements through the first year of ownership). It also has a new "fortified" knob, a rethought out connection piece and the same legit barrel that made the 2022, 2021 and 2020 versions the best hybrid on the market.

BEST 2023 BBCOR

We don't know much about the CAT X Connectin BBCOR, but we do know its coming and we can't wait to hit it. When it does drop and we can get our data gathered on the bat we will update this page.

The Right BBCOR Bat Size

The best-kept secret in the industry is that the best BBCOR bat is the right size bat. BBCOR standards have leveled the playing field so that barrel performance is eerily similar across every brand, model, and make. Dialing in the right swing weight is the best way to improve your exit velocity. See our Bat Size Chart.

Best BBCOR Bat Rumors

2025 BBCOR bats are in full swing and there's several to take serious. We still like the ICON, The Goods, Atlas and Voodoo. Easton's Split is underrated. The marketing hype of the Combat MFG is a very hard pass for us and we don't recommend it to anyone.

How Much to Spend

How We Decide

Our rankings combine objective performance testing with real-world player feedback. We evaluate each bat across four key categories: Performance (50%), Control (25%), Durability (15%), and Value (10%).

Budget Considerations for BBCOR Bats

Entry Level ($100-$200): Perfect for recreational players or those just starting. The Rawlings Clout at $149 offers exceptional value without sacrificing performance. Great for high school players on a budget.

Mid-Range ($200-$350): The sweet spot for most serious players. You'll find proven performers like the Marucci CAT X2 and DeMarini Voodoo One. These bats deliver near-elite performance at reasonable prices.

Premium ($350-$500+): Top-tier bats like the Atlas, The Goods, and Easton ROPE. Worth the investment for varsity players and those competing at the highest levels. The latest composite technologies and maximum performance potential.

Pro Tip: Last year's flagship models often drop 30-40% in price when new versions release. The 2024 Atlas or 2024 The Goods offer 95% of the performance at significant savings.

How We Decide

At Bat Digest, we make it a point to deliver genuine reviews from real players. A significant piece of the baseball bat market is the BBCOR space, and as such, we have used every performance ($150+) BBCOR bat since 2017 for testing in some fashion or another. Most of that work comes between three to four different hitters, but often, we gather feedback from far outside that circle, too.

Qualitative Measures (What We Measure)

Over the years, much of the data we have captured has been qualitative. That is, it responds to the quality of the product in terms of feel, aesthetics, and personal feedback. It serves as a basis for our impressions of the bat. Qualitative data is less objective and more complex when transferring value from one player to another.

Quantitative Measures (What We Feel)

We also use several quantitative measurements to get a feel for the best BBCOR bats. Our exit speed testing, barrel testing, swing weight, and compression testing influence our rankings considerably. We also use aggregated feedback from some rating sites like Amazon and justbats.com to get a feel for what people may or may not be saying about the bat. Granted, many of those reviews are challenging to verify, and the sellers may scrub them only to portray a positive outlook.

Are Our Rankings Correct?

Our funny way of answering whether we are right is simply saying no. We are probably incorrect, and our recommendations may not suit everyone. Our defense is that our rankings are the objective effort in finding the 2023 BBCOR bat players we would be the happiest with on average. Does that mean everyone will appreciate the feel, pop, and balance? Of course not. But our best guess—which we believe is more educated than anyone in the market—is without industry or vendor bias.
