Buy Low/Sell High Canidates

I know its early in the season, but its never too early to be thinking of your teams long term success. The best way to do this? Like many things in life-buy low and sell high-meaning trade away players who are performing way better than expected (if you don't think they can keep it up) and trying to get under performing stars whose owners may be getting nervous.

The SELL HIGH group. If you own one of these players, consider trading them soon while their values are still high but if you don't, don't let go of too much for them.

  • Emilio Bonifacio (2B/3B-FLA)
  • Nick Swisher (1B/OF-NYY)
  • Jack Cust (U-OAK)
  • Marco Scutaro (2B/3B/SS-TOR)
  • Kyle Lohse (SP-STL)
  • Kevin Milwood (SP-TEX)
The BUY LOW group. If you happen to own a player on this list, just wait it out. If you don't start sending trade proposals pronto while you can still get them for cheap(er).
  • Ryan Braun (OF-MIL) He has injury concerns right now, but I don't think they're too serious which is great news. The "injury" drives his value down even more.
  • Mark Teixeira (1B-NYY) Also has injury concerns. Keep an eye on his injury.
  • Jimmy Rollins (SS-PHI)
  • Prince Fielder (1B-MIL) Started off slow last year too but ended up alright.
  • Chris Iannetta (C-COL) He'll be a top 5 or 6 catcher by the end of the year.
  • Brandon Webb (SP-ARI) There's no better time to steal a player than when he lands on the DL
  • Cliff Lee (SP-CLE)
  • Roy Oswalt (SP-HOU) Look at his 2nd half last year
  • Ricky Nolasco (SP-FLA) Peter Gammons likes him-and he knows more about baseball than all of us...combined
