The robots are here to stay and that's not a good thing.
The independent Atlantic League recently announced its robot umpires will stick around until the close of this season at least. And on the surface, that seems like an awesome idea.
After all, the robot umpires are just there to call balls and strikes, and the human calling he shots behind home plate is allowed to overrule the robot. In theory, it should be all good.
The robots can provide assistance with Doppler radar and potentially create a more accurate and consistent strike zone, which would probably lead to a slight decrease in ejections over ball and strike calls and overall happiness for all parties at a baseball game.
