Baseball Replays

[gorvy]

What do you guys think of the new baseball replays? I love the replay system for football as errors are fairly obvious and one bad call can truly change the outcome of the game. I'm not necessarily opposed to replays in baseball but I don't like the idea that theoretically a manager could have unlimited challenges on minor calls if he is successful each time. I could be way off on this but we will see.

I'm all for the more replays to get the calls right. IMO the quality of the umpiring has greatly faded. Just think of the bad calls we've seen before our eyes. The Jeffrey Maier interference issue against Baltimore in the payoffs; the Detroit pitcher losing his perfect game just to name a couple. The horrendous ball and strike calls and many safe and out calls that were blown. We can't take the umpires out of the game but we can assure in fairness that the correct call is made.

Agreed gentlemen.

My thing about the new replay system is can the replays go faster please? Does not take a genius to see if it was a home run or a bad call. It slows down baseball too much.
