I'm looking for a site that shows me the home plate umpires per game, and a site that is updated the earliest in the morning/afternoon. I don't need the stats, since I can get them from Covers, but just a list of the different home plate umps for each respective game. Covers still says N/A as of 3:26PM EST, same with USAToday, ESPN, and I can't seem to find anything on MLB.com. Either I just haven't spent enough time looking since I'm at work right now, or I'm a retard. If anyone has anything good, I'd really appreciate it.

That is awfully tough information to find as far as what crew is working a game to start a series. MLB is very, very protective of that information. As late as the mid-90s, you could find out what commercial flights some umpires had taken, but that even became impossible. I'm not saying I ever did that, checked their flights, just that it could be done back then. It's also become more complicated since they no longer distinguish between AL and NL umpire crews.

If you find any site giving that info 3-4 hours or more before the start of the first game of any series, let me know (just don't broadcast it over a message board).

Anybody know where to get umpire info close to gametime? Doesnt have to be the first game of a series. Just who is umping the game.

rake, I appreciate it man. Gonna try some over unders. I'll do anything to get rid of money.

[WileOut]

Says the umpire info is not available. Is this something you have to subscribe to get the ump info or is this part free?

[rake922]

It's free, but read over post #2 in this thread carefully....

(game 1 of a series is unknown)

[WileOut]

Thanks again.

[LT Profits]

Yeah, Game 1 is almost impossible but the rest of the series is easy. Covers and Statfox have the info up early from Game 2 on.

[ZBOIZ]

the mets and Cinnci game total is dangerous! The under is favored by the ump 13-3. A lot of people is on this over but watch out for that stat

[WileOut]

Covers has it? Where? I'm on Covers daily and have never run into it. I've looked for it too.

On the Matchup pages toward the bottom, in between the Bullpen Stats and the injuries.

[WileOut]

Nice thanks LT.

Why in the hell would this be? I never got that. Why does MLB care if people know who the umps are going to be for game 1s a day in advance??

Because the game is crooked.
