You missed the parenthetical aside in my comment, I think.
If laws are broken, this is a matter for the state.
It is currently legal in the United States for a citizen to sell and obtain anabolic steroids, with a prescription. Possession is not punishable.
If an organization has rules prohibiting otherwise legal drugs - as Major League Baseball (TM) does, this is a private matter between the offender and that organization.
Where I come from ..
Where I come from we don't feel that the government should be a big ol' honking intrusion in the lives of a free citizenry. Where I come from sports are a game. A lucrative one, sure, but a game. Where I come from the government has better things to do that hale baseball players up in front of the national legislature and grill them about their alleged drug use.
Where I come from the Federal Government is a small institution perched on the banks of a minor river, far away.. People don't pay it much attention doings in the state capitol are more important and affect us more. In turn the government does not pay us much attention.
