Some Notes and Observations:
Paul Schrieber is not listed on the MLB Umpire Crew list/staff. He did not work the 2015 postseason, but did officiate the 2015 All-Star Game as the second base umpire.
Tim Welke has not been assigned to a crew, but remains a Crew Chief.
Mike Everitt leads Crew 19 as an interim/acting crew chief (Everitt was on Welke's crew in 2015).
≫ Because of this movement, there are 75 Umpires listed on the Crew list and two Umpire 4 slots available for Call-Up Umpires from AAA baseball. There were 76 umpires and no permanent fill-ins in 2015.

Statistical Promotions or Leftward Lateral Movement:
≫ From Umpire 2 To Interim or Acting Crew Chief: Mike Everitt.
≫ From Umpire 3 to Umpire 2 (Backup Crew Chief): Sam Holbrook, Marvin Hudson, Tony Randazzo.
≫ From Umpire 4 to Umpire 3: Vic Carapazza, James Hoye.

Statistical Rightward Lateral Movement:
≫ From Umpire 2 to Umpire 3: Doug Eddings, Paul Nauert.
