Dangers of BBCOR Bats

Even though the BBCOR bats create a safer environment for pitchers and fielders, they still bring their own dangers.

1) If the bats are exposed to extensive use against a pitching machine, the bats will eventually shatter like the picture above.
2) Some models of BBCOR bats have had issues when it comes to having the endcaps pop off. If this happens in a game then fielders and the pitcher would be in danger because of the rate at which the cap flies off.
