Not sure if anyone noticed yet, but Marucci changed their centerbrand markings for 2010. Pictured are three Pedro Feliz Houston Astros bats used in 2010. The top two bats are dated July and September 2009 and have Pedro's Phillies #7 factpry stamped in the knob. The bottom bat is dated March 2010 and has Pedro's Astros #77 stamped in the knob.

Notice in the bottom bat the name Marucci is spelled out in lower case letters and the new shape of the large M.

Hmm didnt notice that. I just got two gu Marucci bats from a minor league player I know. I'll have to check that out and post pics cause I think the bats are dated on the knob from April of this year

Marucci also made a slight change from 2008 to 2009. The center brand decal actually used to be multiple decals -- each letter was pretty much stand alone. In 2009, the all the elements were included on a single decal. If you look closely at the photo, you can see the difference.

And on 2007 Marucci bats the "Bone Rubbed" was engraved on the bat before switching to a sticker in 2008.
