    Seems there is a lot of umps this year that can’t call a consistent strike. It is really awful

    I mean, it was a strike, but that catcher did a garbage job of framing it. He made it look like the pitcher missed his spot by a foot. If you watch where he sets up though, he didn’t.

    Angel is totally a douche though.

    CB is unbelievably bad but he's not a d*ck. Joe West and Angel Hernandez are almost as bad but complete d*ckheads. Why they keep getting re-upped I have no idea.

    True, bad frame. But it was a strike and not a very close call.

    Let's take a moment to remember Angel Hernandez sued MLB claiming discrimination was the reason he didn't get a post season assignment.

    The way we’ve been on that side of things a lot this year makes me yearn for robot umps. They can’t be worse than what I’ve seen this year.

    Guy's we can't take the human element out of the game. Then we would just have a bunch of nerds running everything which is just not good.

    I don’t think we should get rid of umpires. Just hold them more accountable.

    We have the technology for balls and strikes and that's something I would be in favor for. Players generally know what a strike is more than most umps it seems. Keep them for fair/four and safe/out. But strikezones should be universal and not dependent ton how the ump feels that day.

    business owners are all gods, and they would certainly like to forbid that.
