The office of the commissioner has no purview over the Hall (influence but not authority). The one thing that I trample into the carpeting? Franchise territorial rights, for broadcasting, marketing, and relocation approval. Most of these regulations are antiquated, relevant to the mid-20th century but merely obstructive shackles today. Then interleague play gets cut down, limited to 8-10 games per season instead of the 16-19 currently employed. Finally, revenue sharing gets some teeth added to the requirements for how disbursements must be used. I don't have any detailed thoughts right now, and this is a much stickier issue than it appears at first glance, but if teams get bonus money they should have to spend or invest it into the on-field product, with an enforcement mechanism and a remand penalty (spend it responsibly or give it back).
