Hate to kep harping on it, but robo-unp really needs to happen. Sooooooooooo many blown calls.
Way better than I expected. I thought for sure we would be closer to 90% than 95%.You must be registered for see images attach
Better than I expected. 3 worst calls against the Dbacks.
Is that the internal MLB rating or some other external rating service?Why is the 77th best ump (out of 92) anywhere near a World Series game?
After this series I’m all in on the robo ump. This is ridiculous.If they could change the rules for a designated hitter, can a legitimate argument against robo-ump be made??????
Think of it.... 100% correctly called balls and strikes. Both the pitcher and the hitter benefit.
yeah I agree with the better umps at a minimum. I don't understand why every ump gets to decide their own zone. which is bogus anyway when they change their zone during the game.Even without the robo ump they could improve things by using the better umps. I don't get why the crew is made up mostly of guys in the bottom half of the rankings. Limit the pool to the top 15 or 20 if they want to have some rotation. If you can't crack that then you don't deserve to be in the championship games either.
Again.... the best ump by far is a machine. And it's not like the home plate ump would be losing a job.... he does more than call pitched balls and strikes.yeah I agree with the better umps at a minimum. I don't understand why every ump gets to decide their own zone. which is bogus anyway when they change their zone during the game.
Framing is BS - giving certain players/teams inches off the plate is BS. The strike zone is plenty big as designed to be able to pitch around hitters hot zones. there can be a red/green light on scoreboard for instant balls/strike callsMy only issue with robo ump is that it takes away a little bit from the top skilled players. I love watching a catcher like Gaby who's framing can turn a call or a pitcher like Maddox who was a master at painting the edges and working the size of the zone. I wish we could keep some of those little nuances while getting the robo ump accuracy for the 95%.
