Looking to get a new bat but don't really have any way of trying anything out without buying them. I'm more of a placement hitter but looking to add some pop. I have a z3000, z4 lucky and a one og. Got to swing my cousins Patriot today and it helped. Any help would be appreciated

Anything Miken & Worth for instant gratification bit it'll cost you. Easton if you're willing to wait for 300 swings at half the price

I have the anarchy no name I love it the pop is great it's a little to balanced for me but I use it in My modified fast pitch league. The Miken D.C. 41 asa a great bat. I have the same issues as you I play once to twice a week only 7 inning games so breaking in a bat and working 9'to 5 it's hard. But I can recommend the miken D.C. 41 asa and the anarchy but the Demarini flipper is my gamer right now I'm using the USA flipper 2015 and the Chris Larson Demarini one .12 they both have over 300 hits on them so they are bothe gamer status. Just find something you are comfortable with and stay with it.

The Worth EST Comp is a very good bat. It is also available in balanced, XL with slight endload and in XXL like a maxload bat. Really good pop out of the wrapper, and they get better.

Try the Anarchy Rebellion
That's what I'm leaning towards

Any teammates, or other guys in your league that may let you try something? Most guys I know would be more than willing to at least let you take a few swings to see if you like a certain type of bat. If you are still in your season, try to get to some games early. We normally use that time for some BP and fielding practice. Also, in regard to your comment about swinging the Miken Patriot, the Worth EST is a very similar construction.

i think it's ASA since the OP posted in the ASA section.
Only ASA
Unfortunately the league we're about to start in is a non competitive league (we were the only team to sign up for competitive) so most people in the league don't have high end bats
Pay $150-300 for overpriced Miken/Demarini/Monsta bats....OR find you a nice used Combat or Easton with the requisite # of swings for $50-75....OR get that same bat and spend some time working on your skills so you don't have to rely on so-called technology every time you swing. My $50 '15 Baker didn't take 300 swings to smoke the ball 310' on a 15ft high line last night, so don't believe all the naysayers. Unless you or your teammates are complete idiots when it comes to swinging, you won't break your bat and it likely will never fail compression given the type of league you're in and the use it gets, so who cares about customer service at that price?
There Joker, is this thread recent enough for ya?

UNNNHHHHH, Grog say it stupid
I play ASA only right now and I swing Monsta. Haters will hate, but the bats are hot. Not saying others aren't, but Monsta bats definitely are for the 52/300s. Monsta was introduced to me last year. I bought the Bombardier after trying it and now most of my team swings that Bombardier. Just bought a 17 Torch, and hit one 350 or so my second AB. Wait time sucks, I get that, but $350 for a bat + lifetime warranty seems like a good deal to me though if you don't mind the wait. I wouldn't buy secondary and pay extra for sure. If I wasn't swinging Monsta, I would probably get a Worth EST.
