2021 META vs. the ILLEGAL 2020 META - Louisville Slugger BBCOR Baseball Bat Reviews

THE NEW 33" META IS HERE.
As most of you probably know - the 2020 33" Louisville Slugger Meta BBCOR was decertified from BBCOR play right before the 2020 baseball season was about to start. While circumstances around the exact details of the mid-year follow-up review of the Meta are pretty unknown and mysterious, Louisville basically had to scramble to get a replacement model made - which leads us to today: the unveiling of the 2021 LOUISVILLE SLUGGER META 33" BBCOR - now completely LEGAL for BBCOR play.

While they had to add some new funky technology to the 33" version to get it to pass the BBCOR test, the 31/32/34 will be released later in the year and will likely be unchanged from their 2020 versions (aside from color/design).

The 33" is available to users who were affected by the 2020 ban, and will be made fully available to the general public sometime this Fall most likely.

BAT BRO SCALE DETAILS:
Bottom line: due to BBCOR restrictions, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A PERFECT BAT. Between power, sweet spot, and swing weight, every bat is going to have to compromise in at least 1 area.
Scoring scale:
8 or lower: not a fan.
9: average, middle of the pack.
10: solid bat, above average - Bat Bro approved.
11: one of the best bats in its category and one of the best overall bats of the year
12 or higher:
