This is the best call Angel ever made.

If you Biden will retire too, then I will pronounce you mr President and Angel man and wife. Mr and Mrs Angel and Josephine Hernandez

Stuck around too long?? MLB should have fired him years ago. Yes, it's like he was purposely bad and the league office seemed to have wanted it. It has been absolutely shameful.

@@carpetbuddy The umps are members of the union but they are employed by and paid by MLB. The union might have protected his job somewhat but he could have been fired. Hernandez made around $400,000 a year for being a complete joke.

Here’s the concerning thing in retrospect: those three pitches waaaay outside the zone in the Houston game this spring… was that him telling MLB “I’m going to be so bad you’re going to have to buy me out to stop the embarrassment”?

2:50 CB Bucknor -- just as bad as Angel, and 100X more arrogant. How many times has he made an egregious call, gets chewed out by a player or a manager, and just stands there with a smirk on his face knowing that the ump's union is not going to do anything to him? Too numerous to list.

MLB and the Umpire union are truly the one to blame for this, he just wasn't good enough to hold the position he did for so long. I honestly have zero ill-will toward the guy - he is what he is. The powers that be should have dealt with this years ago.

Actually the data shows Angel has never been the worst MLB umpire or even close to that. It's just that his worst calls are so bad and come at the absolute worst moments.

@proteuswest1084 27 күн бұрын

This is true. By percentage, Angel wasn't even close to the worst umpire, but boy, when he missed calls, it was so obvious that it immediately became a meme. He was involved in so many weird and memorably bad situations that materially affected the outcome of games, it made it hard for any fan to want to see him as part of your team's game.

I’m glad these guys touched on this topic about grading and performance. I’ve watched all the other shows in the past 48 hours like everyone else and I can’t believe no one is talking about it. Not only was this guy trash for decades, why was he not held responsible or given more training to get better? None of us are perfect at our jobs and we have management teams and training to help us get to the next level, etc. this guy was/is trash and no one in that management group had the ability to give him training? Wtf…

@roberthudson1959 28 күн бұрын

According to a number of sources, Hernandez graded out as at least an average umpire with a below-average ejection rate. Another YT channel opined that Hernandez lost the discrimination case because his lawyers lacked merit, not the case. Given those factors, it is not the MLBUA's job to force Hernandez into retirement. It is MLB's job to make sure that the CBA does not handcuff its efforts to ensure high-quality officiating. Like players, an umpire's performance declines with age. The big problem with Hernandez seems to be that his mistakes were HUGE, and becoming more common.

They simply wanted to show that they'll hire anybody but a quality ump to fulfill their quota and I know a lot of people reading this wont have the nubs to back this up for fear of being called racist but this is what dei leads to.
