The 2026 Marucci CAT 1776 is a limited-edition USA slowpitch release built around Marucci's DisRupt Dual Chamber Technology: a soft, low-compression outer barrel over a fully suspended, full-length inner barrel, precision-tuned per weight for flex and explosive response. The full 13" one-piece composite barrel keeps the swing feel clean and consistent, the loaded end weight adds a mild end-load, and Modulated Stiffness Technology in the handle is tuned for a wide range of hitters. It's finished with historic script detailing and red, white, and navy graphics drawn from the Declaration of Independence. Newly added to the CheapBats catalog — independent testing hasn't caught up to this release yet, so treat this as a sourced first look rather than a scored review.
