Or maybe it will convince the MLB to start holding their umpires accountable for how awful they are. The umpires are so arrogant they can't accept criticism. They all have different strike zones, they refuse to admit they're wrong, and when it gets pointed out, they get worse. It's a massive issue in baseball and having superstarts coming out and say it has to happen. Next time the MLB CBA is up, the MLBPA needs to demand more accountability with their umpires.


I agree with this, it's sort of silly how that part of the game works.

I agree with this. I've seen one exception,

This is professionalism (despite the swearing).

It's absolutely not fine.

And we've proved that tonight again. JPA doesn't even come close to going around and the home playe umpire rings him up. A ball is 6 inches outside and he calls it a strike.
