Size matters. Go read MLB scouting reports. Almost all of them mention size or size as a concern, etc. etc.
Now, does that mean a smaller player can't be a great or HOF player? No.
Just because Drew Brees has success as a 6'0/5'11 QB, doesn't mean that scouts don't want their QBs to be 6'3-6'5. It's because on average, most guys can't succeed at that size.

Not disagreeing with you about the small baseball players in the majors. But look at how Hanover's numbers dropped dramatically when they switched to the new bats a few years ago. When it comes to these new bats you have to absolutely demolish the ball to get it out the park. The new balls will help I'm sure but nowadays small college baseball players don't hit home runs.
