Unhappy No expansion of instant replay

GM's and good ole Bud decide to leave replay the way it it and not expand it in 2010

In my opinion they are living in the past

The easiest solution would be to add one umpire and put him in the press box with access to all of the plays on the field via camera angles/replays

That ump could be in direct communication with the crew chief on the field and notify him of any blown calls

These calls should be for fair/foul, plays at bases, and catches only

Any judgement call eg. balls/strikes, runners interfernce would remain unreviewable

Doesn't take a rocket scientist to improve the game without slowing it down
