Will The Mitchell Report Affect Baseball Card Value?

The Mitchell Report has sparked a lot of controversy and debate among MLB fans, but it remains to be seen how it will affect your ’baseball cards' value. The value of collectibles in the past has reflected controversy surrounding them, and this report brings the steroid controversy into primetime for open public scrutiny. I encourage you, as a collector, to manage a collection on iTaggit for the cards of those implicated to view how the value reacts.
