Man, if there's ever a year, this is a year. I've been in postseason several times now, and this team that we have going into postseason, man, it's one of the best teams I've been upon just in terms of overall balance.

Robot umpires would fundamentally change how catchers play defense

If you had the robot umpire and you now have a guy on first base, catchers have to worry about trying to frame the pitch before they throw out the runner.
