Ditch the challenge system go full replacement for umps behind the plate

[–] Kichae@lemmy.ca 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Not unless and until the entity in control of the robo umps isn't thr MLB itself. No one should want that in the hands of the ownership. There'd be zero oversight over the zone at all.

This is the league that mysteriously starts swaping out baseballs when certain players are garnering national media attention. Don't think the strike zones won't start shifting when it becomes convenient.

That's easy to rectify. Post every call publicly for audit.
