Not if you limit the # of reviews.
And if you do it the way tennis does, where the review happens in a matter of seconds.

It happens all the time in tennis and adds maybe a few minutes at most to any match.

Now, adjusted to a certain stance... probably not, but I would still hypothesize it is more accurate than a human.

yep, you can even have a guy sitting there with the track screen who can adjust the strike box if it's not right.

just like making a box with the photoshop outline tool

takes less than a second

no reviews, live feed directly to home plate ump head set

how about inside/ outsidewith the eye vision thing that does a red-light or something but ump still has discretion on height up to a certain point?

Why don't we leave it just like it is? Umps have always been part of the game. And the current replay needs to be tweaked. Replaying those bag pop-ups is not good and not within the intent of the replay rules.

don't the rules state that if you come off the base you're out?

IF you're tagged and not on the base, yes. The Royals have been called out a few times when they haven't stayed on the base, and I imagine that's why so many on here don't want it subject to replay. But yeah, you're supposed to stay on the base. Not sure why it should suddenly be acceptable to come off of it.

MeatRock 10-25-2015 10:56 PM

**** No.

eDave 10-25-2015 10:57 PM

I don't think that was the original intent of replay. But yea, stay on the bag.

Hell no.

Poll pitchers and catchers. I was a pitcher for 12 years, through college. The inconsistency was ridiculous and it didn't get any better even at the higher levels. A batter complaining about a single pitch in a game is nothing compared to throwing the same pitch, pitch after pitch, and getting different calls. You can see the inconsistency at the MLB level. I'm surprised more pitchers/catchers that don't complain, but oh, the ump has total authority no matter his incompetence. Don't piss him off, he'll ring you up the ladder.

If it's a strike, the batter gets shocked.
If it's a ball the pitcher gets shocked.
If the player can take the shock without showing a response he gets a point.
High scoring baseball.

Same - pitched through college. Would do anything to have had automated strikes/balls throughout my career. It's not about robots - it's about letting the players skills and execution decide outcomes - not shitty umpires.

From another thread discussing the same thing - compliments RM:

Eric Gregg? Yea, he was terrible. I can't remember which player laid a cheeseburger on 2nd base between innings for him.
