And "legal" will have so many gray areas and new variants that it won't even make sense. Also MLB doesn't want the billion dollar future lawsuits that a legal drugs side affects might prove unhealthy decades later.
They already are, hell, they were when you & I was in hs.

Moreover, I watched a story on the local news about high schoolers and those ciggarette vaporizers, smokeless cigs, and how they are abusing them. Can't ban everything because some kids in high school are dolts. 16 year olds behind the wheel with 4 friends in the car = a statistically guaranteed major accident. HIgh schoolers would drink pine-sol if they heard through the rumor mill it gave them something extra, whatever that may be.

Their primary concern is money, if some fancy mathmatician crunched the #s and showed them an increase in profits if they removed the ban on these drugs, well, you know, ban lifted.
