Default Re: Bonds elbow armor - (even more) unfair advantages?

[ QUOTE ]
6) At impact, Bonds has additional mass (the weight of his "assistant") not available to the average hitter. The combined weight of "assistant" and bat is probably equal to the weight of the lumber wielded by Babe Ruth but with more manageable weight distribution.

Any additional weight at his ELBOW is not going to translate to increased momentum at the head of the bat.
