Sell High
Aramis Ramirez hits a home run off Tom Glavine in the top of the first inning at Shea to give the Cubs a 1-0 lead. If the Cubs are looking to sell off and rebuild, now appears to be the time to trade Ramirez. With seven home runs in six games, I doubt his price will get much higher. Could they get some prospects from San Diego?
Nevin follows with a homer of his own. The Cubs lead the Mets 2-0 in the middle of the first.

The only reason the Cubs would trade Ramirez is if they don't think that he will pick up his option. What the Cubs shoudl do is keep Ramirez and re-do his deal for a little more money.
While Ramirez definitely struggled during the first couple of months this season, he is still one of the best hitting third basemen in baseball and his defense has significantly improved over the last couple of years.
