peter chaoDennis,
I consider the players to be "fall guys" because they are taking all the blame, when in fact they are only partially at fault here. The owners have always been in control of the situation simply because they are the ones that write the checks.
If the owners wanted to they could have and should have begun mandatory testing long ago, but instead they did not want to battle the player's union because they were making money from all the homers and TV contracts. The owners let the almighty dollar control their decisions and let the average baseball fan down.
