There are many other banned substances than just HGH or Steroids but that can "positively" affect performance. For example, Neifi Perez of the Tigers:

On July 6, 2007, Neifi Pérez was suspended 25 games by MLB for a second positive test for a banned stimulant.

He's a light hitting guy, so not a typical user...
