Can you post photos of the bat? It may be hard to find characteristics of Dotel's bats since he probably didn't get much ABs and the lack of many Dotel bats out there. You may be able to identify characteristics of general game use ie rack marks, ball marks, lace marks, pine tar on the bat which may indicate game use. Minor league ball marks will leave different ball marks on the barrel verses a MLB baseball too.
Since Dotal's first season in the Bigs was 1999 a pre-1999 bat one would assume would show minor league ball marks.
