Baseball, Umpires and Mudmajor league baseball use Louisiana mud or Mississippi mud to rub baseball i know because i work for a team as the bat boy.
I've noticed they have 2 additional umpires for playoff games this year, totaling 6. Must be a new standard. Depends in a Major league game there is 4 umpires on a field any minor league games normally 3 but it can depend on who can be there.
Before the season starts Major League umpires are put into crews, and the crews are scheduled for their games by Major League Baseball. Once the playoffs start individual umpires are selected based on their grades during the season.
No, this would be too complicated and umpires are usually not consistent on most occasions.

I would have a system similar to cricket, or rugby league or other sports with qualified umpires working as video umpires or refs. Umpires could call for assistance on close calls. You could also have teams being allowed a certain number of challenges at the discretion at the coach.
