Robot Ump

It would be interesting to see umpire gamelogs like you can pull for pitchers showing strike/ball calls. 

 

One interesting thing I've noticed lately when people on twitter whine about the zone is, the PU head position seems to be low and they're moving their heads a decent amount on pitches. Small sample size and non-scientific study,

oh wow, all the time I've spent on the site, never discovered that! Thanks! That's the only place I ever go to see pitch info. most pitch trackers suck.

 

It looks like you can only pull up single games, would be interesting to see their average zone, a typically called zone, and their zone that day.

 

I know that there are twitter accounts that show individual pitches and will show how many similar called % a location got.

Interesting day today. Not just the all the EJ's, but the fact that almost every argued call was called a strike correctly. Gonna be a lot of fun watching these guys get ticked off at the robo ump.

I can't wait until a catcher plucks a baseball out of the dirt and it's called a strike. Or a curveball that is caught at the belt and above a catcher's head, but catches the top of the zone.  That's going to be fun.
