Individually I'm OK with or indifferent to most of these changes, even mildly supportive of a couple of them.
My gut reaction to the whole thing, however, is more along the lines of "Stop trying to turn baseball into the NFL!" and a sarcastic "chicks (and people who show up for free and barely pay attention) dig the long ball!!!"
Big "NO" to lowering the mound.
"I wasn't going to follow the nats this year but now that games are 10 seconds shorter on the average and the extra innings games have different rules i think i'll check em out"
