Hmm, tough. I don't think I'd do it though. Kemp is a fantastic player, but Cantu will cool down and I don't see Zobrist racking up the points. Prince is beginning to heat up and can put up monster points when he's hot, as can Longoria. If you say Kemp is equal to the Prince, I don't think Cantu+Zobrist is worth Longo.

In an 8 team league you usually do not want to be on the 3 side of a 3 for 2 deal. This is the case here. Matt Kemp will put up 30/30 this year, but losing Prince and Longoria for Kemp, Zobrist and Cantu doesn't do it for me

Nah. I pass for all the reasons mentioned. You want top-shelf talent in shallow leagues, not a larger quantity of good guys.
