What do you think about bamboo baseball bats?
Recently, I asked a question regarding aluminum baseball bats. At first, I liked the idea for Major League Baseball, but now I understand why nobody in MLB uses them. They make the ball go twice as fast, and that can be dangerous. I know I wouldn't want someone like Albert Pujols or Paul Konerko to send a line drive towards me with an aluminum bat. The main reason I was first sold on that concept is because aluminum bats don't break, and I'm all for saving the environment. When I went to Academy today, I noticed there were bamboo baseball bats. This made me put my thinking cap on. What if they did away with maple, oak, and ash bats whereby replacing them with bamboo? The reason I'm down with bamboo is because it's a very strong wood. Not only that, but it's light and durable. It's less likely to snap due to it's flexibility. Therefore, I'm now wondering if you think MLB should p a new policy with nothing but bamboo bats to decrease the amount of broken or corked bats. They can even ensure they all have that concave aperture at the end in lieu of that concave dome to decrease the likelihood of them being corked? What is your opinion towards bamboo baseball bats? Yay or nay?
