MLB goes PeeWee League.
Regulating the shift, time clock for pitchers, and larger bases. Maybe I'm just an old man who yells at clouds........ I know it's difficult, but if you are a professional ball player you should be able to hit to the opposite field. When is the last time you saw a shift on a right handed batter? Overall, poor fundamentals at the plate, the lack of just making contact instead just swinging for the fence, has lead to high strikeout rates and poor averages. With pitchers mostly going 5 innings and the pen taking over, the game is naturally longer. Likely three more arms will be used and it takes time for these guys to warm up, coaches going back and forth to the mound....and so forth. If starters went 7 innings or 8, one arm two max is used. The game speeds up. However, pitchers are not trained for those innings anymore. Bigger bases? Don't even get me going. I'm heading outside now to yell at people to keep off my lawn.
