I think it's more that they're not held to a standard. They make shit calls and get away with it, time and time again. Where's their penalty? What happens to C.B. Bucknor for making those 2 horrible calls the other day in the same game at 1st base?
What kind of fine will the umpire pay who made the WRONG call, calling Joe Mauer's ground rule double a foul ball, even though it clearly bounced in fair territory? His crew chief even said right after the game that the ball was fair.
There is no accountability. And unitl there is, there will be no change.
There's no crying in baseball
