    A= Amish Maple (VM is also Amish, just graded higher)

    AA= Amish Ash.

    With regards to LDM, LDM-X and all it's variants, Straight from TECO:

    Player's Perspective

    • If I wish to use a maple bat these bat density regulations apply to me:
      • I have never signed a Major League contract:
        • You have a minimum maple density of 0.0245 lb/in.3
        • You may not use any bat labeled LDM or LDM-X
      • I signed a 2011 or 2012 Major League contract:
        • You have a minimum maple density of 0.0240 lb/in.3 (LDM-X)
        • You may not use any bat labeled LDM, only LDM-X is allowed
      • I signed a Major League contract prior to 2011:
        • You have a minimum maple density of 0.0219 lb/in.3
        • You may use any compliant bat regardless of the density label

    Supplier's Perspective

    • Only maple bats are subject to density regulations
      • Maple billet with a density under 0.0219 lb/in.3 may not be used:
        • No Major or Minor League Baseball player may use a bat with a density under 0.0219 lb/in.3
      • Maple billet with a density between 0.0219 lb/in.3 and 0.0240 lb/in.3:
        • A bat constructed from this billet must be labeled LDM
        • Only players who have signed a Major League conract prior to 2011 may use this bat
      • Maple billet with a density between 0.0240 lb/in.3 and 0.0245 lb/in.3:
        • A bat constructed from this billet must be labeled LDM-X
        • Players who have signed a 2011 or 2012 Major League contract may use this bat
        • Players who have signed a Major League contract prior to 2011 may use this bat
      • Maple billet with a density greater than 0.0245 lb/in.3:
        • A bat constructed from this billet should not be labeled LDM or LDM-X
        • Any Major or Minor League Baseball player may use this bat

    Bat's Perspective

    • Bat is not labeled LDM or LDM-X
      • Bat has a density greater than 0.0245 lb/in.3
      • Any Major or Minor League Baseball player may use this bat
    • Bat is labeled LDM-X:
      • Bat has a density between 0.0240 lb/in.3 and 0.0245 lb/in.3
        • Players who have signed a 2011 or 2012 Major League contract may use this bat
        • Players who have signed a Major League contract prior to 2011 may use this bat
    • Bat is labeled LDM:
      • Bat has a density between 0.0219 lb/in.3 and 0.0240 lb/in.3
        • Only players who have signed a Major League contract prior to 2011 may use this bat
