2026 Marucci CB15 Torpedo Pro Model Maple Wood Bat Review
Carlos Beltran's CB15 turn reworked with a torpedo barrel that shifts mass toward the sweet spot, aiming for explosive contact in the middle of the barrel.
The Score
How we score ↗The grade, density and grain of the billet — slope-of-grain, ink-dot certification, and whether it’s a true pro-cut. The headline for a wood bat. A primary driver of the overall score.
Barrel size and the turn-model profile (110/243/271/I13 and the like) — how much hitting surface and forgiveness the shape gives you.
How the wood feels and sounds at contact — the flex/stiffness of the handle, and the crack off a quality billet.
How well the wood holds up — density and grain quality (and, for composite wood, engineered toughness). Far more important on a wood bat than on alloy.
How hard the ball comes off for a wood bat — real, but a lighter factor here since wood isn’t about chasing max exit velocity.
Quality per dollar versus comparable pro-grade or composite wood. Shown for context; NOT factored into the overall score.
Why this score: Concentrated barrel mass earns a good power and sweet-spot mark; the torpedo profile is slightly less forgiving overall, which holds the other scores steady.
Our Review
This takes the large-barreled CB15 turn and applies the now-popular torpedo geometry, redistributing wood so more mass sits where the bat most often makes contact. In practice that means a fuller mid-barrel and a hard, dense feel on square contact, with a slightly end-loaded balance. The torpedo shape is best for hitters whose contact is consistent and centered; a more even barrel taper is more forgiving for hitters who spread contact around. The bone-rubbed maple is ink-dot certified. Marucci covers its pro maple with a 30-day warranty.
