Re: Equipment Updates 18

Some guy got the game on Tuesday night, and started streaming. He got banned shortly thereafter, but did show us some new equipment, he went through it pretty fast though. What I remember is Lizard Skins, Marucci, Mizuno, and LS batting gloves. There may have been more but I didn't catch it. Mizuno, Marucci, and Under Armour fielding gloves. No new catchers gear, which sadly means no Nike catchers equipment.

Was hoping for Victus bats at least. They were bought by Marucci (so one would think licensing not an issue), and according to What the Pros Wear they are the second most popular bat in MLB (Marucci, Victus, Louisville Slugger, Old Hickory, Chandler, Rawlings in that order followed by all the rest with small percentages of the market). So far just seeing Marucci, Old Hickory, Sam Bat and generic on the stream.

edit - they just subbed in Chisenhall to bat on the SDS tourny live stream, and it looked like he was using a generic bat in the game from what I could tell. A quick look at Getty Images shows him using a Victus bat...so looking like Victus didn't make it in. Oh well, if that's the case guess Betts uses a Marucci in my 'chise again this year (generic equipment is a pet peeve for me haha).

I really wish Chandler would have made it in. Selfishly for Kris Bryant, but a ton of big name guys swing them including this years Cover Guy.

I hope I’m wrong then, but I didn’t see it on the one video that was showing equipment.

Re: Equipment Updates 18

I can't believe they still have three slots taken up by Rawlings batting gloves, something NO ONE wears, but cant get equipment players actually use in the game.
