Scyguy, SURELY we ARE going to tell deficient ump what we saw when he was out of position. Some of us (myself included) might even phrase it that way... "Well, what I saw when you were out of position was that the runner was tagged out... it's now your call to change or not change."
And just as surely, we are going to call the assignor and make sure he's aware of this guy's horrific mechanics.
PLEASE don't penalize the players for the deficiencies of your partner, when you have the information to make things right.
From other posts you've made here, you strike me as a competent official and a consummate professional. But these comments that you intentionally hung partner out to dry at the expense of the players rub me the wrong way.
