There are a few guys left that "could" come back if the system opened up to them. Others have taken the retirement package.

ALSO, there was a rumor thread on this site that said as many as 15 umpires would take some type of a retirement package this year -- I have not seen ANY umpire retire to take some kind of offer.

Thank for the info.
The retirement offer was MADE to 15 umpires....we have no idea how many (if any) will accept it.
