[/QUOTE So how much do you feel that these highly skilled MiLB umpires should be paid for their valuable service to all of mankind?

Follow on question:
How do convince the people that really matter, MiLB, that they are worth the extra money? Obviously the strike hasn't worked too well.[/QUOTE]

I don't have a rational answer to the first question, and I don't care to try to guess. I have an emotional answer, and I don't care to post it because it's emotional. I can't tell you what firemen, cops, soldiers, teachers, nurses, etc. are worth either. The market is dynamic.

I disagree with the premise of the second question- they are a month into the strike. Despite what our instant-gratification society teaches us, some things take time. The strike may be one of those situations.

Strikes and outs!
