The regular season and playoffs are too long. If the series went to 7 games, we'd be playing baseball in November, thats not right. Realistically, the World Series should be over and done with by mid October. Make the regular season 150 games or something, chop the AL/NLCS to a best of 5 instead of 7. Furthermore, with the current post season schedule, there is very little time to build hype for the World Series. The Super Bowl, hype builds up during a week. Super Bowl teams get a week to prepare for the game, but the World Series typically begins 2 or so days after the conclusion of the championship series. I'm not sure how MLB can change this as it would just extend the post season.
