Lol. Going against my team and couldn’t agree more

It’ll help Seattle too as the ump obviously is just guessing at low pitches. 4 out of 5 weren’t close (the Stanton one was too close to be challenged).
I just don’t understand why they instituted this half assed measure. Full ABS speeds up the game, it removes the hostility between the umps and players/coaches, and is obviously more accurate. The umps should be all for it since they still need a home plate ump. Maybe mlb just needs to guarantee them they won’t try to low-ball them on the next contract.
I get why people like the system but I feel like since it’s balls and strikes are an objective measurement, there’s no reason to allow human error to be a factor.
Really grinds my gears.
