I don't think an all or nothing answer works, either.  I want to see Griffey in the Hall, for example.  Best we can do is muddle our way through.  Nobody will be perfectly happy with it, but that fits with what that era has come to represent (Barry Bonds Jr. holds the home run record, etc.).
I don't believe that Griffey, Jr. did steroids. But, I don't know that for a fact either.

I don't see how the writers can put the stink on some players with little to no actual evidence, then not do the same to others.

Steroid profile wise, Junior Griffey had a nice steady career with some peaks, but he brokedown pretty quickly and trouble staying healthy after steroid testing became more prevalent in the early 2000's. That's as much evidence as anyone has on Piazza or Bagwell.
