My opinion on this is that if there's a click coming from the bat, then something is not fastened properly. If it's a two piece bat (permanently assembled, not the interchangeable kinds), then I suspect the barrel end is not mated correctly with the grip end. If it's a one piece composite, then I suspect the end cap.
And if you look up "rattle", I believe you will see that it is better defined as the presence of a noise, not a definitive type of noise.
