Since Manfred is changing so many rules anyway, what if we put in a rule that the batter can decline a walk? One time thing in each at bat, so you can't change your mind later on in the at bat. This would mean that an at bat will either end in a strikeout or the ball is put in play. I think a lot of fans would rather see a K or the ball in play over a guy walking to first base.
And of course, it might be bad strategy most of the time to decline a walk.
