We are fans, and everyone who swings it is a fan. In fact, the bat gets the best ratings on the site in the only place it can be purchased (Easton.com here). It's a huge barrel, light swing, and an excellent feel for being a single-piece composite.
We'd put this bat up in the top five 2023 BBCOR bats. But since it's hard to find (only at Easton.com) and doesn't come in a 31-inch, it's hard to say its a must-get. But, if you want something off the beaten path that hasn't been run over by the type train a few times, then check out the 2023 Maxum Ultra.
The bat, as far as we can tell, has no changes between the 2021 version and the 2023 version. Our guess is these are left over 2021 models that have been colored up for 2023 and then sold exclusively on Easton's site.
The BB23MX baseball bat is a high-performance 1-piece composite bat from the Maxum series. It has a barrel diameter of 2 5/8 inches and a BBCOR certification, making it suitable for high school and collegiate baseball. The Flow-Tack Grip ensures a comfortable and secure grip while swinging. It's similar to Lizard Skin, but it's not. The bat is made of full composite material, which gives it flex and a light swing in a single-piece design. It was released in 2023 and comes with a 1-year warranty. This bat is designed for serious baseball players looking for a top-of-the-line composite bat with great performance and quality.
Our best marketing write-up: Introducing the Maxum Ultra from Easton, a 1-piece composite bat with an XXL sweet spot, offering a blend of speed and power. The bat has been designed based on player feedback, with increased mass in the barrel for added advantage. It features Seamless Carbon Construction, combining the stiff feel of a 1-piece bat with the smoothness of a composite. The Flow-Tack Grip offers superior cushioning and tackiness. Leading college programs use Easton's BBCOR bats and have a successful history in the College World Series.
