That's called managing your business. No different than discharging, firing, however you would like to refer as termination of any other employee.

Pretty much the same fate that Pete Rose faced, except that Rose chose to be put on the ineligible list if baseball ceased investigating the matter, and to prevent further legal investigation. (Sounds to me as though he had/has something to hide.) Of course, the caveat to that was that after one year he could begin to petition MLB for reinstatement, which he has done, and which has subsequently been denied.

"Legal" investigation? How are you using the term "legal"? MLB can only leverage what they have. The ONLY thing baseball could have done is what they did.

I don't agree. MLB baseball, against the advice of many, did not choose to ban "performance enhancing" substances until after the 2002 season.

Another joke, IMO. These
alleged enhancement substances do not enhance performance, they enhance the bodies development. What people take exception to is the results, or by-products of that development.
