The number one reason the games are too long is that the other team stealing signs. Then the team in the field has to change their signs throughout the game. This is why the batter is always stepping out of the box and the catcher is always going to the mound.

Within two-three years pitchers will announce the coming pitch into a small microphone, and the catcher will have an earpiece, thus eliminating signs altogether. To complement this, batters will be required to stay in the batter's box between pitches and also prohibited from re-velcroing their batting gloves. And pitching clocks will finally be enforced. If baseball cannot solve these fundamental timewasters which occur 300 times per game, nothing else will matter.
