bat length

Hi,
I've followed this site with interest and have purchased both videos.

It's time for a new bat for my 14 year old, and wanted to ask if there are any thoughts that relate to appropriate bat length. His league allows a -5 drop, and he has been using a 30/25, but he has gotten taller (about 5' 9" now) and I am wondering if he should move to a longer bat, say 32", even though it will add a couple of ounces of weight. Any suggestions or thoughts?
Thanks much in advance,
Joe H
