I really don't think the Umpires like him, In a recent interview with Joe West he said Adrian Beltre was the biggest whiner in the MLB...lol pretty funny.

Those old farts all have a grudge against him I guess.

If you read the article you would have seen it was said in a joking matter

...Uhhh so he just got suspended for nothing then?

That makes a whole lot of sense...

“Every pitch you call that’s a strike, he says, “Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!’ I had a game with him recently and the pitch was right down the middle. He tells me, “that ball is outside.’

“I told him, ‘You may be a great ballplayer, but you’re the worst umpire in the league. You stink.’’

That was the quote and the whole article was lighthearted

Not saying I like joe west personally I think he's one of the worst umps in baseball but this didn't warrant a suspension

Save that for when you retire, no one cares what he thinks lol.

You can say whatever you want Joe West has been a notorious Rangers hater, He might have been joking in the interview but I bet he really believes it.

You don't think these umpires get together and talk about this stuff? I mean look at the OP in this thread...Did he really warrant getting thrown out for that?

The umpires clearly have some sort of hatred towards him.

I mean I could understand how umps wouldn't like beltre his antics probably get tiresome to guys who have to deal with it day in day out with fans constantly on your case

Beltre moved the circle out of spite cause he didn't like being told what to do and got ejected for it. I say good call ump.

Yeah because it wasn't the 8th inning of a blowout game in which Beltre stood in the same spot every previous AB.

But yeah man good observation.
