Sean,

I agree! On the Sosa corked bat incident, this is what I was told a few years ago by a friend who was a member of the Cubs staff.

The person told me the day the corked bat incident happened the clubhouse personnel immediately took away several Sosa corked bats in the clubhouse and hid them. MLB officials grabbed the rest of Sosa bats and x-rayed each one and of course did not find anything wrong with the rest of his bats. Pretty cool story from a very reliable source that I will not name.

Hoosier's made those "finger joint" bats for years now- I believe they're not game legal but used in BP because the barrel won't flake.

As far as strength goes, plywood is just wood chips glued together, and it's a heck of a lot stronger than a sheet of real wood.
