Construction & Technology
A one-piece TPX-24 alloy bat with a traditional aluminum feel and immediate performance. The Pro Design knob taper improves hand comfort and leverage, while the standard synthetic grip provides adequate tack without adding weight. Swing feel is balanced and stiff, with direct feedback on contact.
Performance Comparison
The 2026 Dynasty is functionally unchanged from the 2025 model. The same alloy, swing profile, and construction carry over, with updates limited to cosmetics. Performance and feel remain consistent year to year.
Comparable Bats
Comparable BBCOR one-piece alloys include the Rawlings 5150, the Marucci CAT 9, and budget-oriented team bats. Compared to premium options like the Atlas or CAT X, the Dynasty sacrifices top-end performance for affordability and balance.
The Bottom Line
