You are a mormon.
Have you ever tried to put nails through an aluminum bat?
When you put the first nail into it, the bat loses all of its structural integrity. It'd won't improve with more nails, if anything, it'll get worse. one whack with the bat (if you were even able to swing it) and the thing would shatter in your hands.
Don't get me started on if it's a double walled.
Additionally, modern metal bats are very thin, so the nails would do even more damage.
Aluminum bats by themselves have a slight trampoline effect, which would cause greater damage when making impact than a wooden one.
If you are going to ruin the bat's impacting power, then don't use aluminum, use a wooden bat. With the nails, you aren't going for the "pop" that the bat would provide, you are mostly going for the piercing power of the nails.
