That's the sad thing about Angel Hernandez retiring, that there are just a bunch more still active that are at least almost as bad. Playing wack a mole to try and get better umpiring just feels futile.

There's one real solution whether people want to admit it or not.

Jeff Passan said Angel wasn't even the worst.

I HATE the stupid extra innings rule.

I can live with it from the 11th on, not the 10th.

My preference is to give teams an extra 3 innings under normal conditions to decide the game. If it's still tied after the 12th inning, that's when I'd start each inning with a runner on 2nd.

Or, better yet, don't do it at all.

Fuck that. They are ruining the game. ~yells at cloud~

It just makes no sense to me.

They want to end the game quicker so they introduce things like the pitch clock and an automatic runner in extra innings.

Why not just have a home run derby in the first inning and call it a day?

I had no choice. I had to dur him.

He may never recover.

Boras fucked him over.

I hated not resigning him because I thought he deserved it but I am man enough to admit that just this one time that I was wrong. We chose wisely in signing Lorenzen over him.

Yeah, we do have a couple of injuries on the offensive side, but that shouldn't be an excuse to be as bad as they have lately.
