I'm surprised this one isn't at the top.

I am kind of undecided on this as a whole, but there are definitely situations in which I could see it being implemented. There are also situations where replay that overturned the original call might create a whole new set of problems. In regards to the former, for example, I could see it working for safe/out calls. However, in the case of a fair/foul decision, if the call was originally foul, but replays clearly indicate it was fair, where do the runners get placed? How does one determine where they would have ended up if the ball had been correctly ruled fair to begin with?

I'm not too worried about the expansion of replay. Even if replay entirely takes over the Majors, I'll still be able to umpire quality baseball (i.e. independent ball, college, etc.).
