I think they need to just enforce rules on pace of play, enforce a uniform strike zone size (width of home plate, top the batter's armpits and the bottom the center of the knees), and maybe limit defensive shifts to only a few players.

With the strict drug testing today, the result is a massive falloff in offensive output with a game so dominated by pitching that it gets too boring to watch at times.

I think all that would work, but there would be a massive fall off in offense at least for a few seasons. And that’s in an aleady historically low scoring era.

How do you pick what players can be shifted against? Or do you mean a team would have only so many radical shifts per game?
