Lots of "late bloomers" in baseball during
the '90s and early 2000s for some reason

Before then, but Phil Niekro didn't Crack the starting rotation until he was like 27 or 28. He won 31 games before he turned 30. He won over 300 in his career. So he averaged like 16 wins for the last 18 years of his career. He pitched 3 times more innings in his 40s than he did in his 20s.

Randy Johnson doesn't really fall into the steroids discussion though.
he always threw hard and had a nasty slider, he just couldn't control the damn thing when he was younger.
Led the league in walks several times.
once he figured out how that players don't swing the bat when bailing out the ay of an errant heater, and put the ball over the plate, his walks went way down and strikeouts went way up.
