Baseball HQ, Ron Shandler was asked to name an American League hitter and pitcher and National Leagues ones who he believes offer good upsides in the second half. Here are the four players named (around 32:50 of the podcast).
American League:
Hitter: 3B Melvin Mora Baltimore Orioles
Pitcher: SP A.J. Burnett Toronto Blue Jays
National League:
Hitter: SS Jimmy Rollins Philadelphia Phillies
Pitcher: SP Roy Oswalt Houston Astros
Mora should be readily available in most mixed league formats. Rollins likely can't be acquired for anything less than his 1st round value. The two pitchers should be available at a discount to their draft days values due to lack of effectiveness of both and injury issues for Oswalt.

here are a few more
Adam Laroche-good 2nd half in 2007
Manny Corpas-he had a great 2nd half last year, and has pitched well of late, and Fuentes is about to be traded. He could be given the closer job again.
Bronson Arroyo-good 2nd half in 2007
Freddy Sanchez-good 2nd half in 2007
Brad Hawpe-hasn’t found his groove yet, but plays in that nice hitters park
