What changes would you make if you were starting MLB from scratch?

What if in 2023, the NBA, NFL and NHL existed but there was no baseball? If you were starting MLB from scratch today, how different would it be from what we watch currently? Everything is on the table, so we can remove things or add things however you see fit. Here are things divided into [...]
