If longevity is considered a primary consideration, Froemming will get a look. If the respect of your peers, players and managers, consistent excellence in performance as an umpire, instructor and supervisor are considered, Haller will get a look. Haller, rated tops by ML umpires of his day and fired as a supervisor after refusing to come out of retirement from active umpiring and work games during a strike was described by Harvey as "an umpire's umpire."
But first, John McSherry deserves a look.
