The second half of the Major League Baseball<\/a> season resumes tonight around the league, which means our three-day national nightmare without baseball is over.<\/p>\n

Whew. We made it. Felt like a lifetime!<\/p>\n

The resumption of the season also spells the beginning of the end for three of the worst umpires<\/a> in the league.<\/p>\n

That’s right.<\/p>\n

For Laz Diaz, Brian O’Nora and CB Bucknor, the second half of this MLB season is their final half … ever. Three veteran umpires, all retiring at the end of the season.<\/p>\n

And, of course, three of the worst-rated umpires in the entire league so far this year.<\/p>\n

Take a look:<\/p>\n

According to the (un)official MLB umpire report card site, umpscorecards.com<\/a>, Diaz (8), O’Nora (7) and Bucknor (1) have been three of the worst-performing umpires this season. All three have already taken a buyout and will be “retiring” at the end of the year.<\/p>\n

Coincidence? Eh. You tell me!<\/p>\n

Are they all just so far past their primes, and this is just the proof in the pudding? Perhaps.<\/p>\n

Or, are they all just mailing it in since the end is near? Sort of like we all did when were in our final semesters of our senior years.<\/p>\n

Senioritis<\/em> is a real thing, you know?<\/p>\n

Regardless, it’s not surprising to see those three make the list, especially Bucknor, who was so unfathomably bad at the beginning of the season it’s actually stunning they’ve allowed him to continue calling games.<\/p>\n

Seriously, it was remarkable:<\/p>\n

Lordy. Just one of worst calls you’ll ever see. Amazing.<\/p>\n

Bucknor has the worst accuracy of any umpire in the league (91.33%), while O’Nora and Diaz are both just a shade over 92%. Seven umpires in total have accepted buyouts and will be retiring when the year ends.<\/p>\n

The other four haven’t fared much better, by the way:<\/p>\n

Not the best, but certainly not the worst.<\/p>\n

And yes, everyone’s favorite punching bag<\/a> \u2014 Jan Pawol \u2014 is currently the third-worst ump this season. Not sure she was offered the buyout, though.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
