Much better reporting on the video in your link than in the text

Much better reporting on the video in your link than in the text Theres no communication going on at all. Heard of a 10 45 pm press conference but then that was canceled. Iboriginally saw the report on a police scanner facebook group that I am in. Supposedly it happened in the 3rd inning. Rumor is that it was an off duty cops gun that was accidentally discharged.

The level of imcompetence... And Baseball doesn't give a fuck. Why does MLB allow this to happen? Fans give Angel Hernandez a bunch of shit and deserved but to me CB Buckner is the absolute worst. These umps are supposed to be the best of the best in the WORLD!!

Seattle / Texas / Houston / Toronto 1 of them is out. Who you got? Seattle -- Tied for final spot. The hottest. Houston - Tied for final spot. Just got swept by Yankees. Texas ---- Tied for final spot. Once a shoo-in. Now coldest of the group. Toronto -- Currently 1.5 out Astros - Rangers: Faceoff Monday - Globe Life Field (MLBN) Mariners - Reds: Faceoff Monday - Great American Park Blue Jays - A's: Faceoff Monday - Oakland Coliseum (A's no longer the worst)

I know why nothing is done , just can't say it in todays world. I'll just say he has job security and it's not because of his skillset as an umpire or the union he's in Looking at examples like this pitch , just totally ridiculous and teams have to cringe when they know this clown is behind the plate. I don't see anything ever happening unless hitters unite and agree to go ballistic over calls like this to get more attention. When a hitter simply shrugs it off because they expect it from him , it's not getting the attention it deserves

It's watching calls like the last video that will push the robo ump into existence. Terrible umps are only hurting their own job security. Now, we'll never be entirely without a home plate ump, but their job gets much, much easier (and less valuable) with a robo ump. The lack of oversight, and complete indifference to improving the product will only hurt themselves. MLB is as much to blame as the umpires themselves.

Some people might think it's no big deal , but just one call like the one shown can lead to an entire different outcome of the at bat and game. It's not just affecting that one pitch , that one pitch can change the entire rest of the game because the following pitch and what is called could be different just because of one ball or strike. And this guy is doing this 10+ times a game for 11 games in a row now ! I realize no ump is perfect and there will be bad calls , but the amount of them and how blantant they are with this guy has become a joke.

Especially if it is how they explained it on the broadcast. His value would likely increase.

Julio Urias was arrested for charges of domestic abuse last night.
Just a reminder this is not his first connection to domestic Abuse.

Jeez. Glad we have plenty of potential starting pitchers on the way to where we don't need to target a top arm with baggage.

Ohtani and Urias both with huge question marks attached, Nola and Stroman both some underperformance baked in. Yamamoto!
