The greatest players of every generation could compete in any generation. The difference is that the average players have improved in every aspect of the game. This served to make the competition deeper and the quality of the game progressively better.
I really think that if MLB wanted PEDs gone they would punish the team that benefited from the cheating of the individual player. They punished Melky Cabrera but the Giants organization benefited from his use. He played 113 games prior to getting caught. Make all of those games forfeits and there is no WS for the Giants in 2012. Instead they win the World Series and Melky is given a $377,000 share.
