Needless to say, here at IIATMS, we’re pushing for some solution or remedy or change in rules to help protect the players, coaches and fans.  I’ve written plenty about this, including some very recently, so if you’re curious, have a look:

• Additional chatter on the maple bats and a possible solution
• Finally! Maple bats face ban
• Finally, the cry to ban maple bats is getting louder
• Maple bat maker goes batty
• Maple bats and minus 3.5
• Seriously, can we do SOMETHING about these bats already?
• A solution to broken bats, aluminum bats
• It’s about the wood, stupid
• Dunn switches to ash from maple
