Yes, his accomplishments had everything to do with the INITIAL rise in his cards' prices in the 1980s. But those accomplishments were all there before and during that initial rise. My point is that the values have stayed surprisingly high after his disgrace because of the residual effect.
(Just FYI, I am a lifelong Rose fan and I think MLB should now relent and let him in the HOF.)
