The last I knew, each team hired their own umpires for their home games. In Tucson, they used some of the local area umpires that called a lot of NCAA ball.
I know a few people that have called these games.
I understand that the fee wasn't near as much as you would expect for that level, but the ball was good.
I don't know how playoff umpires are selected. If the league grows and starts to be a viable sports entity, I can see them starting their own umpire program.
