The two posts above are right. Be aware a lot of 14U leagues require BBCOR.
But you definitely don’t want him to use a BBCOR before he has to.

as a kid I always wanted a deMarini or Marucci. They still the top of the game?

Yep. Marucci is better for one piece, but I’ve always liked Demarini two pieces

Check your league rules. 14u requires BBCOR most of the time, rather than USSSA

which is a good reason to buy used. I like to usually buy used anyway

Depends on if he’s more of a power or contact guy. Love the CF if he’s a power

My 12 year old (he’s 5’8” and 190 lbs) uses a Louisville Slugger Meta -5

Sideline Swap is where I buy used bats. Generally you can get a warranty bat in the wrapper, as parents don't want to
