I don't mind it. The only negative is there will be less "Not Top 10" plays from pitchers screwing up the Intentional Walk. But you're right, it doesn't ruin any strategic aspect of the game. I'd prefer if they didn't do stuff like this, but this isn't the worst thing in the world.
I'm not a "shorten the game" guy. I don't care about society's all-of-a-sudden short attention span. I think it's a load of crap, first of all, and I think there's a large amount of politics involved in the media's discussion about it. NFL games last 3.5-4 hours, but only contain 11(!) minutes of actual game play.
As stated in Field of Dreams, "The only constant throughout life is baseball."
