MIAMI \u2014 The only known member of the Mets to use the torpedo bat this season is Francisco Lindor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That fact alone should tell you the innovative bat isn\u2019t a panacea for a player \u2014 Lindor was 0-for-11 this season as Monday\u2019s play against the Marlins began.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Even so, Mets players are open to experimentation.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI had teammates last year [with the Yankees] that asked me if I wanted to try it, but it never caught my attention,\u201d Juan Soto said. \u201cBut, yeah, I would try it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Several Yankees used the innovative bat, which places extra meat just below the barrel, to bash a record 15 homers over three games against the Brewers. <\/p>\n
Included were a team-record nine homers in Saturday\u2019s game.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Pete Alonso told The Post that he will probably place an order for torpedo bats just to see if they help him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cWith certain bat modifications and stuff now, guys are doing whatever they can to catch up with the pitching, because pitching across the league is pretty darn good,\u201d Alonso said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cAt the end of the day it\u2019s just hitters trying to catch up and adjust to the pitching and see how to maximize their consistency. They are getting a tool best fitted for them, no different than a guy wearing cleats that are just fitted perfect for him or having that glove that suits his position or having a bat that is tailored for his swing, so certain guys it definitely can be beneficial for.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
But Alonso also downplayed the idea the torpedo bats led directly to the Yankees\u2019 historic numbers against the Brewers.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Yankees had an offensive explosion, and they are a very talented offense and that can happen even if some of the guys weren\u2019t using the torpedo bat,\u201d Alonso said. \u201cThat is a talented lineup and that is what happens when you get a bunch of guys hitting balls over the middle of the plate. \u2026 I\u2019ll probably order some and try them out, but I think it\u2019s the Indian and not the arrow.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Mark Vientos said he learned in spring training that several Yankees players would be using the torpedo style through his conversations with a representative from his bat manufacturer. <\/p>\n
Vientos said he\u2019s considered using the torpedo bat, and the Yankees\u2019 early success might lead him to revisit that idea.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is what makes it interesting, to try it out,\u201d Vientos said. \u201cBut then again, they are a good team and they had a good week, but next week they could have had a bad week and then people are going to be like, \u2018It\u2019s not the bat.\u2019 \u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Soto seemed amused by the attention the torpedo bats have received in recent days.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s just another bat, which is a different shape,\u201d Soto said. \u201cI think it\u2019s the same thing guys have been using for years, things like the Yankees are using now. I saw guys in the past using it, so I don\u2019t think it\u2019s anything new.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Lindor, according to manager Carlos Mendoza, began using the torpedo bat toward the end of spring training. <\/p>\n
Mendoza expects others to test it, but it won\u2019t be a case of players going to the plate in a game to use a torpedo bat for the first time.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYou have got to get a feel for it and see what it\u2019s like,\u201d Mendoza said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
