Do they usually stick with the same 4-person crew for the spring? for a while? or do they all switch? how does that work? im just curious about what the pros do. [/B][/QUOTE]

No, during spring the umpires do not work with the same 4-person crew. They usually work with several different umpires during the spring. In addition, they often use a 3-man crew in the spring.
During spring some umpires stay in the say general area. Bruce Froemming, for example, umpires a lot of Dodger spring training games in Vero Beach because he lives in the area.
