Robo umps are far from perfect. Plus it would allow catchers to start standing up mid pitch to throw out base stealers because they won't have to frame anymore.
The issue isn't the default dimensions of the strike zone being called correctly, its the consistency of an umpires strike zone. Umps should be able to call whatever dimensions of strike zone they want, as long as the maintain consistency for both teams throughout the entire game. The biggest fix would be to grade umps on consistency, and actually fire the ones who suck.

Matos is slumping and batting .211. Ramos is batting .354 and has 4 HRs. If they bring him up again and he shows once more that he can't hit at the major league level then they may need to just give up on him. He's 24 now and is approaching what should be prime years for a player.

The lack of power is surprising. I didn't expect them to be the 1927 Yankees but this is ridiculous. They don't have any pure power hitters other than Soler but they have a few players that usually hit between 15 and 25 HRs per year. Now they've gone 7 games without a HR. They don't hit well enough and don't have the team speed to have many sustained rallies. They need the occasional HR to score.

I've always thought that umps should have stats shown before the game just like players. Like "Behind the catcher is Joe West, a 94% pitch call accuracy" etc. Angel Hernandez would be hilarious to see

Matos will be as affective as Yaz at the very least and yes Ramos is smashing the ball, he needs to be on the big league roster.

Idk, the ball can have the smallest touch on the strikezone and have it be called a strike. I saw a ball challenged and it barelyyyyy hit it. I would've called it a ball but it was overturned
