Heath Bell, San Diego Padres
So far in 2009, Heath Bell has been great. But can he keep it up? Doubtful. His 0.47 ERA has to start heading north and while he already has 13 saves, those opportunities will likely start slowing down as the Padres cool off. Sell him high now before his value drops.

Frank Francisco, Texas Rangers
Just like Bell, Frank Francisco is a closer who is pitching great for an overachieving team. He hasn’t given up a run and the Rangers are near the top of the American League. Francisco’s value will only go down from here.

Edwin Jackson, Detroit Tigers
While with the Tampa Bay Rays, Edwin Jackson showed instances of potential. But it’s highly doubtful that his 2.55 ERA and 1.10 WHIP are here to stay. Trading Jackson would make a lot of sense right now.

Zach Duke, Pittsburgh Pirates
Zach Duke is having a great season for the Pirates. He has a 2.77 ERA and a WHIP of 1.08. But considering that his best marks over the last three years were a 4.47 ERA and a 1.50 WHIP, it’s difficult to imagine him keeping up his current pace.

David Aardsma, Seattle Mariners
Right now, David Aardsma has a lot of value. He’s the closer for the Mariners and he’s sporting a 1.25 ERA. But this is the same reliever who has been with five different teams over his last five seasons. If he was this special, wouldn’t someone have held on to him? Sell.
