    When I started this video, Angel Hernandez was an umpire. Now with 10 minutes to go, he is no longer an umpire. Pretty crazy for a sport that doesn't exist.

    Yeah and just hijacking to remind everyone that angel IS and WAS bad. Guy ump'd just ten games last year and blew 161 calls in that time. Sharpshooter fallacy is on display in this thread. You can't just draw a circle around the stats you like and exclude the ones you don't. I don't agree with the title of this video or the message it sends because Angel earned his reputation

    And just to remind everyone, the title and general theme of this video is straight up incorrect. Angel is one of the least consistent umpires the MLB has ever seen (his numbers and accuracy vary wildly by team and by year of service), culminating in a 2023 season where he missed 161 calls in 10 games. Angel (among Wendelstadt, Kulpa and West) can all be attributed with having umpires' jobs replaced by robots. Not to mention, umpires' numbers decline with age. There's a very clear and noticeable trend in this regard. If Angel or any other ancient Ump had acknowledged that fact even once, we wouldn't be celebrating as much as we are. Angel really hurt the legitimacy of the sport with his narcissism.

When umps inevitably start making less money as their job is replaced by a computer, future umpires will cite Angel as the beginning of the end. The person who destroyed Umpire credibility for future generations. 161 missed calls in 10 total ump'd games in 2023 is just dreadful performance. Good riddance, Angel!

That the job is hard doesn't excuse letting emotional old men bumble around and mess it up - in fact, I'd argue the opposite is necessitated. Get us the young guys in there who are motivated to do a good job and don't hold emotional grudges against organizations or players. A computer will never hold a grudge. Good riddance, Angel! Great job ensuring that future umpires will be computers and not humans.

    Exactly. His ability to blow a big call in high impact situations is what really makes him stand out. The fact that he is so unapologetically bad just makes it worse. I think a good comparison would be Jim Joyce. He blew a call that cost a pitcher a perfect game and he acknowledged it and clearly felt awful about it. And most players, including the pitcher in question, loved him for it. Just imagine how Angel would react if he did the same thing and I think it will show the reason he is so widely considered to be the worst. It's way more than just number of balls and strikes incorrectly called.

If the umpire positioned himself behind the other shoulder his face and view would be 2-3 feet outside the plate. The umpire should always set up over the shoulder of the catcher that offers the most direct view of the plate. If the catcher lines up inside, they position over the outside shoulder. If the catcher lines up with his head right down the center of the plate the umpire should be over the left shoulder unless the catcher is left handed.

    The POV doesn't even make sense, I got all of those right and I've never been an ump in my life. I've hit against 90+ before though in high school (we had a stacked division) and it's a whole different game when you have your eyes vs watching video. The batter POV looks so much quicker to me than when I was actually in the batters box, and I'm sure that's the same for umpires. You're completely losing your spacial sense and hearing by watching a video, I could tell how deep a ball was hit in the outfield by the sound of it and I'm sure that helps with umping as well. All of that on top of what you said, I don't have any experience being an umpire and I still got it right.

Sharpshooter fallacy will convince you anything if you're willing to ignore the greater context of Angel's career. Angel suuucks. And no, "the MLB thought he was above average in 2013!" isn't a compelling argument. If you have to point to anecdotal evidence from 11 YEARS AGO to make your point, you're probably stretching.

    The strike zone is not where the ball hits the mitt, it’s when it goes over the plate. Players move forward and back in the box for a reason, but the call is always made at the point it crosses the plate. You need to rethink what the strike zone actually is and what mlb explains it as.

    Those umpires also came up in a completely different era where they weren't so closely monitored every single pitch. Don't believe me? Watch some games in the 90s. Greg Maddux would be an average pitcher in 2024 because he wouldn't get anywhere close to the calls he did back then. And by the way, that is not necessarily a bad thing. They are calling the game more closely to the rulebook now than ever before, and that's a good thing.

    I feel like it's not the frequency of bad calls with Angel, it's more how extreme the bad calls are. He might not miss the most but when he does he misses big time. And his propensity for throwing players out. I don't have the data on if he throws more guys out than others but it certainly feels that way. If an ump makes a bad strike call the batter will move on by the next time he bats, but when they get tossed that's all they think about the rest of the day, so that would probably cause people to lean a lot more negatively towards their opinion of him. Then now that he already has a reputation for being bad, making people more likely to blow up at him... bit of a downward spiral

    Most people have no idea how hard umpiring is, especially behind the plate. With the digital strike improvements, missed calls stick out. Most people wouldn't even notice most missed calls if you take the zone off the screen.. Umpires have been getting better and better for years. It's just that misses are obvious during broadcast now. There are obviously some umpires that have been around too long and need to hang up the ole ball pouch. But there are several that are working now that are amongst the best, most accurate ones to call balls and strikes of all time.

    18 umps worse than angel doesnt mean angel isnt bad, it means at least 19 umps are atrociously bad. People care less about the pure # of wrong calls, A close call gotten wrong is understandable. What gets you called bad and hated universally is the egregiousness of the incorrect calls, how NOT close they were, yet still called incorrectly. Angel does those, a lot.

    Exactly. What is the metric to decide the worse umpires? If it's just number of missed calls, that could easily be a few borderline calls that nearly any ump would have missed in the same spot. Even if it uses something like "average miss disrance", if those misses are on the first pitch of an at bat, that's very different than missing in critical full count situations. It's possible the metric takes all that into account and Angel really isn't as bad as some others. But I somehow doubt it. Especially when you consider things like his blown calls at first, blown tags at home, etc - things that dont show on umpire scorecard. Either way, MLB should make home plate umpire a specialized position and require a certain level of accuracy to do it. If they want to rotate umps for the other positions, that's fine. But home plate should be a rotation of guys with proven accuracy.

    Not necessarily. The whole point of this video was to show that Hernandez is not the worst ump. He only gets that reputation because when he does make a wrong call, it goes viral compared to other umps who make worse overall calls but don't go viral. He's overhated because he's found himself in shitty positions. Not because he's actually just that bad. He's still below average but massively overhated due to things outside of his control

    @@anonymousperson3023 the title is 'angel isn't actually bad' which he goes on to prove the opposite in the video. scoring better than 28% (lmao) of the others in your crew isn't a great point in the video's favor. the 'point' really loses its luster fast.

    May not be the worst, but its his approach and attitude that makes him completely hated.

    Without a doubt. Be sued a league with almost half Latino players saying he was being discriminated against for being Latino. Like my brother in Christ come on

    Angle announced his retirement one day after this video was posted. Coincidence? I think not.

    People gotta realize modern pitching is meant to deceive the batter with the most subtle of movements. The best pitchers throw 3 pitch combos where a 2 seam strike and a cutter ball only change direction across the plate.

    So basically here is how to make a grilled cheese Start off by getting your two slices of bread, lots of kinds of bread can be used such as sourdough which is pretty popular although I personally prefer using white bread. Next you need to get your cheese, lots of cheeses exist that are really good for grilled cheese but I realize that most people don't have many types of cheeses at home just laying there so if all you have are slices of American cheese I would recommend just using two slices per grilled cheese because that's just my personal preference for cheese to bread ratio Now for the cooking, I know some people use panini presses which work very well but most people don't have a panini press so you can just get an oven top and a stove and set heat at 3 and put butter on the pan and spread it around then when it's melted slap on the grilled cheese and keep it there until it is golden brown which is when you take it off and put another piece of butter on there and put the grilled cheese back on when it melts once that side has turned golden brown as well you must take it off and I personally recommend cutting it diagonally to make triangle and once you do that you can enjoy your delicious grilled cheese
