Of the many big changes coming to the upcoming season for the Dodgers and the 29 other teams, it seems like replay reviews may take a back seat in 2020. Because of course the umpire’s union would ask for that (looking at you, Angel Hernandez).

Replay reviews could vanish in Major League Baseball in 2020 as part of a deal with umpires that contemplates a possible “monastery setup” in which off-the-field movement is restricted because of the coronavirus pandemic.
This came together as MLB and umpires came to an agreement about pay for the upcoming season which guaranteed they would make 37.
