playoff selections coming up

[dumbdumb]

per mlbu media guide

umpires for WC and DS are to be notified 1 week before the last game of the regular season which it looks like is Sunday the 28th.

so, that means all the DS guys that are notified Sunday know they are in the hunt for a WS.

The WC guys know the are in the hunt for a LCS.

now, does someone get the WS on their first try in the WC or DS? usually there is a build from WC or DS to LCS and then WS per what the past records show. and being in replay counts.

hopefully nobody has one of those negative thingamabobits or what some call a clostraduck during this last weekend that riles the world of baseball up, (but that clostra could also be a positive) and also that nobody who is really in the hunt, gets dinged in the mask, and has to go on concussion protocol for 15 days with just pure bad luck timing. believe that has happened before.

good luck to all.

How do you think this plays into an assignment decision?

not sure i follow here

this below happened on or around 9/14/2014 and the umpire worked the 2014 LCS on 10/10 and later worked the 2016 WS as well as another LCS in 2018 and a W/C plate in his last year in 2021 at 68years 11 months and 6 days, years old. but i did get that mentioning the umpire and WS it seems someone knows Mr. Bellino has the DS which is a prelude to the WS. would someone care to share the rest of the DS and W/C crews.

Actually, I didn't know Bellino was a DS CC last year. The other DS CC's were Mark Carlson, James Hoye and Todd Tichenoe, Dan Iassogna and Bill Miller for LCS, and Mark Carlson WS CC.

So that answers my question - MLB doesn't hold it against him.

i believe you used the term unsourced, i read it on the internet in the ABS article. well i will use that term to say, i believe i read Mr. B did a mea culpa at some point on the incident, as did Mr. W. and if you track some old history, Mr. W had a run in with Mr. Torre years ago, in which it appears that bygones will be bygones between the two of them.

He apologized and this was a long time ago. Dan is deeply respected.
