It's not "that easy" and while that 19 yo may not be able to call a better game - you forget the most important part - he's far more moldable, coachable and has far more potential.

Nobody is saying MiLB is going to fold over this. But the games would be a joke.

As someone who annually watches things like the LLWS and the CWS - those umpires could work in A-ball night in and night out. A few games? A week? Sure. But not with their level of consistency. You'd be surprised.

And MiLB umps could work HS games this year. Absolutely. At the same set contracted fee. Many I know keep up their HS and College memberships for fall ball and such. They'd just get first dibs. Your games.
