Hey Steve,

I'd be interested in hearing about the effect of body mass, if you have any such information.

I have no idea how far he could hit the ball with an 18-ounce bat, but I assume that at 18 ounces, he's well below the point of diminishing returns for batspeed (is there not a weight at which taking away ounches will not add to bat speed?)

Regards,
Jeff
