Your chance to wipe out a bad mechanic

OK... it's you're chance. You get to wave your wand and pick one bad mechanic and erase it from the minds of the entire country of umpires.

Do you pick BU's who have to go remind the new F1 that there's a runner on 2nd, 1 out?

Do you pick umpires who run around the field with the DDB signal, holding it there until they get to the base they're protected to?

Do you pick PU who has to go chat with the crowd between half-innings?

Do you pick the PU who yells PLAY after every foul ball so loudly and so late that he's nearly caused illegal pitches?

Or something else entirely - what's you're umpire pet peeve you wish you could fix?

Me ... I'm going with the first one, wishing I had 4 wishes...
