So here’s my question. At what point did using steroids and/or HGH become against the rules in MLB? If MLB allowed the use of the drugs in, say, 2000, and Clemens used them, and they were legally prescribed, then I’m sort of missing the massive scandal here. Yes, they should not have BEEN allowed, but the fact is, they were up until fairly recently.

The scandal isn’t so much the individual players, as it is the MLBPA blocking every attempt to get the substances banned and get a stronger testing regimen in place.
