Umpire Grades

Every home-plate umpire we’ve graded, ranked by games worked. The grade is accuracy on taken pitches against the rulebook zone; swing is the average runs a game those misses moved; ABS is the Automated Ball-Strike System record — how often the robots overruled the call when one was challenged. Each umpire’s page is a live rollup of those Blue Notes.
