I've generally been opposed to the idea of robo umps so far. Mainly because then coaches would have nothing to argue with, and watching a grown man throw a tantrum in public is one of the few things left in this world that brings me genuine joy. However, man this stuff is making me warm up to that idea really quick.

[@jer6579]

The biggest problem with robo umps is that they'll need to read a 3d strike zone that changes with every player. I'd assume that they are currently inaccurate and need more time with them before any point of implementation. The better less lazy solution is to fire bad umps tbh. If you can't do your job get replaced by someone who can. The occasional bad calls or bad game by an ump will keep the sport entertaining with arguments but at a certain point just send them down a league and fire them if no improvement is made.

[@ShaneFolden]

the only robo ump change thats seriously being considered is automatic balls and strikes. No other calls would be robotic (ie plays at the plate). So even if we go with automatic balls and strikes the umpire will still be back there for other plays, and most people thing the umpire would still make the ball and strike signal himself, he just has something in his ear that tells him what to call

[@theburnetts]

Robo umps will only call balls and strikes. So you’ll always need umps on the field to make other calls and to decide about ejections.

Given what they apparently told Montoyo, the four umpires got together and jointly concluded that, due to some trash talking getting a little heated, Heineman (Blue Jays catcher) called for a beanball in a tie game, and the pitcher (Garcia) simply went along with it. So they not only ejected Garcia on really flimsy grounds, they decided to double down and insult his intelligence on top of it.

He should’ve went high fastball instead of slider on the last pitch

[@relaxingred2090]

When the second guy got walked I knew the game was over. There was no other outcome other than a dinger to end the game.

[@troyc294]

If Romano's that insistent on throwing that slider he'll need to have one more pitch. Although tbh idk why he's not throwing his fastball more, that's what got him the closer job last year. Not to mention he throws 95+

[@mrxxsesshomaruxx9642]

That was a bullshit ejection tbh and I'm a Yankees fan, actually not only the ejection of the pitcher but most of them.

[@Fityfo54]

I feel like on principle, because specifically the previous batter was a home run the pitcher needs to go. Kinda like head to head collision in Football, most guys never intentionally do it. But if it happens you have to follow the letter of the law. If they weren’t you’d end up with pitchers taking acting classes to get away with it (or bad acting people are dumb).

[@gagecollie2180]

@@Fityfo54 the first pitch came no where near JD tho, Idk feels like that the ump should realize a ball just got away from him

[@Fityfo54]

@@gagecollie2180 And Refs should realize that ball carriers lean into helmet to helmet contact? What's the difference? The history that baseball has and the extreme danger of a baseball moving at 80-100mph makes this a black and white issue from my perspective. I agree that these umps were not reasonable in the calls following and allowed the Yankees to throw a near miss without repercussion is bullshit. But I view this as a "We need pitchers to be more aware of their throws ESSPECIALLY in this situation, were here to play a game not kill/maim anyone." Again it should be a no tolerance rule, simply because of history and potential danger. I really do believe in these situations it should be "the powers at be" who throw out that pitcher. and force there there to be a hearing/review to decide whether the pitch was intentional or not for the purposes of fines and/or suspension.

[@gagecollie2180]

@@Fityfo54 i don’t believe it to be this way balls get away and people shouldn’t be tossed for a ball getting away at the head maybe but at the back worst that happens is a bad bruise, head to head contact often can lead to concussions and/or neck injuries which are much more dangerous

Another great episode of The Umpire Show! Ending sucked though. Something kind of similar happened in 2015 between the Royals and Blue Jays in August. Donaldson got beaned by Volquez early and both benches got warned. Volquez brushed him back high later (no ejection), Madson beaned Tulo in the chest (no ejection) and then brushed Donaldson back high (no ejection). Sanchez beaned Escobar in the mid leg and got immediately tossed.

I imagine refs placing bets is fairly common, but when insane shit like this happens you cant help but question them. My mind goes to the ref who literally kicked the puck to a Bruins player with his skate like 2-3 weeks ago.

[@mrboobyhead]

as a Australian who doesn't know to much about mlb, after watching a few of his videos I've been wondering same thing. the umps are making game changing decisions, randomly ejecting people for little to no reason, and just seems to be 'part of the game'. either something dodgy going on or feels umps should get there own thrme music when they do it like WWE, cause feels like I'm watching that.

[@blindjustice8718]

@@mrboobyhead Vegas wants games to be close until the end so either team can win. This is entirely obvious in the NFL. Especially after last season's playoffs where every game -- including half-time blowouts by the Rams and Chiefs -- came down to last second field goals or overtime. The officials only need to make one or two questionable calls that favor the team given the nod to affect a game. Watching Jomboy's videos, it's pretty clear MLB umps are doing the same sort of "one-eye-blind" officiating. The reason it feels like you are watching a rigged WWE match is because you are. Vegas never loses.

[@michaelbeelby1995]

There are only 3 Yankee fans I have ever genuinely liked. My grandmother (God rest her soul), My best friend Rick, and Jomboy. As an aside...This is what happens when Umps make ridiculous calls in previous games and are challenged on it. They have, not only a memory, but an ego that usually shows up in games after they've already made atrocious calls. They feel the need to 'show who is boss'. Ideally umps should be invisible throughout a game. Unfortunately that very fact is why we see such overreactions and horrendous calls with regularity.
