Hasn’t technology fukd our world up enough already? I think this is a horrible idea…no disrespect to you GG or others who feel differently…it’s a human game-humans are inherently fallible…win or lose, whether playing the game or betting on it, I’ve always lived w/the bad calls and moved on…
Bad calls are one thing….this is much more than that. This is incompetence without accountability. MLB just needs to step in and get these guys in line. But…they don’t and these umpires never adjust and are in fact defiant. Some of them need to get demoted or just never work behind the plate…simple stuff really. They need to be held to a standard.
I agree w/them being held to a standard and implementing some sort of accountability system…on the other hand, I guess I’m used to pitchers having to adjust to an umpire vs the other way around…Vin Scully touched on this often in his play by play…
