The wood bats that the pros use vary in price from manufacturer. Most similar models retail from $80 to $175. The bats that each pro uses are custom made to his specifications for weight, length, barrel and handle thickness, balance, color, and name personalization. They also choose the wood; either northern white ash or maple. They purchase these bats in such bulk it is impossible to know what the companies charge them but you would assume they get a bulk discount. The team that the player plays for assumes the cost of the bats, not the player.

A typical major league bat costs anywhere from $50 to $70 dollars, depending on whether it's made from ash wood or maple, with maple being more expensive.

No the players don't pay for bats. The team owners do.
