I voted only homerun calls. Let's face it, that is the only game changing play - A homerun.
Umpires have been a part of the game for almost 150 years, why change it now?

I voted the two challenges. That way, the game isn't slowed down too much and the coach uses his discretion to challenge whatever he wants.

I voted NEVER.....I believe the human element is what makes baseball so unique compared to other sports. This is the only game other than soccer (And who in the US watches that?) where a human calls the final shots. Can't say the same about basketball, football or hockey.
Btw Scotty, the home run isn't the only game changing play. What about a game ending 9-2 double play with 1 out and the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth where the home team was down by one run. The sac fly would've scored the tying run. Is that not game changing?
