Yes they suck but robo strike calling isn’t going to be entertaining at all. I see umpires all the time that miss calls out of the zone but it is consistent. It adds a new strategy and dynamic to each game. Hitters have to adjust and so do pitchers.



What if the umpire could slightly adjust the strike zone that the robot is reacting to before each game, within reason, to be reflective of what he thinks it should be.

Then the robot tells him strike or ball into an ear piece so he can be demonstrative with his calls.

I am fine with keeping umps in the game but they need to be held accountable when their zones are completely fricked

Umps are graded based on the robo strike zone now, if they consistently are missing pitches then they lose the ability to call games.
