You still don't understand the effect of steriods. Steriods simply help someone become a bit stronger, bigger, faster, than what they are. They build upon a base.

A weak hitting shortstop will be a slightly weaker hitting shortstop, and that might be enough to keep him in the game. Someone, like Bonds or Clemens, who possess talent will get an extra push that could make the difference between 60 home runs and 70 home runs, or 12 strike outs and 14 strike outs. Someone with no talent at all, will still have no talent at all. I have no idea which group you were in when you were a kid.
