Why No Replay Review?

I still think they should have "text in your call" promotions -- the most popular during a commercial break wins the call.

From a dollars and cents standpoint you are probably right, UNLESS they go to expanded use of replay. If they put it in for safes/outs, you would see probably 10 replays a night I would guess under a buzz down system. In which you would probably want some camaraderie between CC and the guy looking at the monitor in order to effectively communicate what needs to be communicated. Just a bit of a trust / comfort issue for the crew.

IF they put in replay. I still don't think they will. They may experiment a bit with it in a WBC or spring training though.
