I noticed the umpire talking to him the other night but has he been working slower than normal or is this a new rule? Or has he been fined before and I just haven't realized it? According to Paps it's his 7th fine.

According to Paps it's his 7th fine. MLB should fine McClelland every game as well. He might be a good umpire, but it is not enjoyable to wait for him to take his sweet time calling balls and strikes. Apparently he doesn't give a verbal call either which makes it challenging for both teams. Poorest spending of $3 million that I have ever seen.-fcastig 0220
