players already get pissed over calls that are very obviously correct. most of the manager and fanbase anger comes from the player’s reaction, thinking “oh, the player must be right.” so going to robo umps wont even change that much to begin with.

i remember jomboy doing a breakdown on (i believe) alex cora getting pissed at pat hoberg’s strike zone. except that the 6 or so calls that cora was mad about ended up being the correct call
