I don't know how accurate this is today, but here is a price guide:

Also, maybe you are already certain of authenticity but you can't take for granted that bats are actually game used just because they may look like it and someone says they are. I have no opinion on those bats but you do need to be cautious and get input from folks familiar with the bats of those players, and not just from the pricing perspective.

Very true. One thing I did notice from a google image search is that they both DO like Marucci bats. As a Giants guy, I know I want a SAM (or LS) bat for Bonds, a LS for Posey, a Tucci for Panda, etc. Bonds used a few Youngs, a few Old Hickorys, etc., but (for me, at least) I want a guy’s preferred brand.

Even though Pujols is surefire HOF, it looks like his “stock is down.” 2013 would be an Angels season. His StL fans are kind of “over him” and his Angels tenure has not been spectacular.

And, another thing....

Yadi had a great 2013 season; Pujols, not so much. If I can date a bat to one specific year, I don’t want a down year.
