This season, the torpedo bat design has gained popularity among some Los Angeles Dodgers players eager to test its efficacy. Freddie Freeman, a seasoned hitter with a strong track record, has opted not to switch to the new bat, citing his satisfaction with his long-standing choice. While some teammates, like Max Muncy, try the torpedo bat, Freeman believes in sticking to what has worked for him, even as he faces a short-term injury with a sprained ankle that will keep him off the field for a bit.
"I do not look down on anybody. If it's legal, you can do whatever you want," Freeman said. "I've swung the same bat for 16 years. I will not be changing to a torpedo bat."
Freeman's track record as one of the best pure hitters in MLB is hard to argue against, especially with his impressive wRC+ scores since joining the Dodgers.
