I wonder if the Cano experts will chime in again?

I'll start off with the short simple answer this time: MAYBE.

Maybe Melo or some other other guys want to chime in since this one I'm not so sure about.
The fact that the number 11 appears to be written on the knob is enough to keep me far away.
11 is Brett Gardner, ask the seller for a clear up close pic of the handle--Brett has the tendency to beat the handle of the bat on his cleats to free up dirt and as a result the handle is beat up real good with cleat marks.....something Cano does not do.
The handle tape isn't how Cano does it lately, although I've seen a couple of bats taped like that in the past.
Nowadays tape would go higher up the handle.
Tape may or may not be an issue but really the 11 on the knob makes me question if Cano used it or gave it away to one of his teammates.

Hope that helps.

With an "11" on the knob, I am going to say unlikely , maybe a cano bat used by gardner

Unlikely!
Yes, that's the word I was looking for when I was typing my response.
Still had "maybe" stuck in my head from the last thread:D

Of my 20+ Cano bats, only 1 of them has anything written on the knob. The tape is also unusual, typically anything certainly 2010-2013 would have higher tape, if it is taped. Cano is tricky, because his bats can vary greatly. But when you know the year the bat was used, you can match it to traits during that period. I'd agree with everyone else... very unlikely.
