Greenies were not against the rules, and did not produce video game statistics.
Steroids were against baseball rules (I don't see much case for punishing players before this was true) and did in fact produce absurd video game statistics. Dexedrine and steroids are very, very different and were treated very differently in the rules at the times in discussion, and produced very different effects. Deciding many decades later something was not okay to retroactively punish almost everyone of that period makes little sense to me. I am fine with inducting the steroid guys, it should just be done 1) with a reasonable justification if one is given and 2) not only for guys the writers swoon for (Ortiz) but applied consistently.
