interesting to note that Joe West, the worst umpire on the list who has 2500 or more calls, is the crew chief for the 2014 ALCS.

The calls behind the plate in both nl/al playoffs this year have been brutal.

I would've guessed CB Buckner to be a lot lower than where he was. Angel Hernandez is awful too.

It should be like premiership football/soccer. The worst performers in the bigs get sent down and the guys that performed the best in the minors should get a bump up to the bigs. Done every single year.

Where's Frank Drebin on the list?

And what's Nordberg doing in Detroit?

Silly unions would block this like they block anything that forces workers to be accountable to perform at a high level but this really is a great idea.

Expand it from low A all the way through to the bigs. Top ten move up, top ten move down from each level. An ump moves down three total levels, they are fired.

And I always thought Joe West was one of the better umpires. How did Randy Wolf's brother rank?

Don't they have some stupid rule where an umpire can only work one postseason series each year, no matter how good of an umpire they are? I thought I'd read that somewhere but don't remember the specifics of it. So if Paul Schrieber, the best rated ump, was to work the Wild Card play-in game then he couldn't work the World Series.

Aside from acting like a general *******, I've always thought Joe West was an awful umpire. He searches for opportunities to insert his personality into the game instead of simply doing his job. Just call balls and strikes, tell us if it's fair or foul, call plays on the bases, and keep the game moving. Aside from that please just stand there, Joe.

Have heard a lot of bad things about Davidson, and he's almost last.
