Stewart got a surprising start Monday and will get much more playing time this year. He will be outfield-eligible once he plays enough games there, and has loads of potential.

 

Francisco Liriano

He had a rusty start Monday night against a weak Seattle lineup, but this is the time to buy low on him before he starts blowing people away.

 

Here are the players you should sell:

 

Chipper Jones

His stock is high right now after his fast start. but you know he won't stay healthy all year. See what you can get for him before he gets hurt.

 

Justin Verlander

I don't know what to think of this guy after he got shelled Monday night. Two years ago, he was a Cy Young candidate.

Now, he wouldn't even sniff that award. See what you can get for him if another owner thinks he'll turn it around.

 

Emilio Bonifacio

Bonifacio had a career day on Monday, but he won't keep it up all year.

Sure, he has speed and hits lead-off for an improved Marlins lineup, but it's doubtful he'll finish anywhere near the top 10 in second baseman.

 

Brandon Lyon

He had his chance to compete for the closer's job last night and got shelled for three runs and the loss for the Tigers. I wouldn't touch him right now.

The fact that he struggled so much last year also comes into play.
