New Umpires

Why are there new umpires? I have never followed the MLB playoff assignments with a "magnifying glass," but I would have assumed that the umpires selected to work playoffs would work the entire October Post-Season, slowly eliminated based on further evaluations.

Example:

Division Series:
24 Specially Selected Umpires/68 MLB Umpires

League Series:
12 Specially Selected Umpires/24 Division Umpires

World Series:
6 Specially Selected Umpires/12 League Umpires

Correct me if I'm wrong (and I probably am).
