Excellent stuff:  I would swap out Hart for Dunn in a moment.  
Over the winter I thought Stubbs would be a great addition because he has 3-positional OF leather and beats up lefties.  Didn't know he hit the ball so hard, though.  Grichuk/Suza/Lake are all Stubbs or better, I think.
In golf, Smash Factor is the multiple of swing speed that the ball leaves the club face.  If a guy swings at 100 MPH and the ball leaves at 120, you have a smash factor of 1.2.  Swing at 110MPH and have the  ball leave at 143 your SF is 1.3.  
It measures efficiency.
Your data is very cool.  Who hits the ball especially hard?  In Safeco, that's a big deal.  The Miller #'s are really neat. He has the 2nd hardest hit homer for the M's this year.  Hold onto that guy.
