Baseball's (supposed) flaws have been discussed ad nauseam, but what can we actually expect from the new rules in 2023?

They’re, like, two and a half hours.” But times have changed. And now, it’s not just the Smart Teams that aggressively shift. It’s everybody. But in 2019, a significant sea change occurred: The percentage of shifts by the No. 1 team leaped from 37.3% to 50.5%. And that No. 1 team was the Dodgers.
