I was thinking about offering:

Give: Felix & Phillips
Get: Votto & Kemp

I'm concerned about my BA and I think Votto/Kemp would help in this area. Can I afford to take the pitching hit?

I think Kemp and Phillips values will be about equal this season, but I think Votto should outperform Felix. I think Votto will break out in a huge way, and I would make that deal.

The deal makes sense, but if possible I would like to see you get a tad more value... even if it is a lesser pitcher than Felix or a small upgrade at closer or for Rocco on bench.

Help me out:

I like it for you. Phillips and Kemp should be about equal, Kemp getting the nod at BA which is your need. Votto should become a stud and I'm not as high on Felix as others. I think your pitching is deep enough to make this deal.
