League Info: 12 team, keep 4, H2H points league...

I have a pitching staff of Kershaw, Felix Hernandez, Latos, Ervin Santana, Holland and Minor with solid closers. I am thinking about dealing Felix for a package of players to improve my team as a whole.

Would a package of Starlin Castro and Matt Garza for Felix be enough? Last year Felix scored 594 points, for comparison sake Castro scored 497, Garza 496. Compared with others, Top 10 batters are btween 600-700, top 10 pitchers are generally 600-800 with Verlander and Kershaw being big outliers last year because of Verlander's no hitter which gets extra points in our league.

My starting SS right now is Aybar and my offense is a little weak and dependant on some 2nd year guys, I have Hosmer, Cano, Aybar, Lawrie, Braun, Jennings, Markakis.

It is keep 4 so my keepers coming into this year were Braun, Cano, Felix, Kershaw... Hoping I would replace Felix with either Hosmer or Lawrie if someone breaks out this year as a keeper.

So in final, do I try to move Felix for an improvement as SS with Castro + Garza as pitcher or is it not enough?

NONot nearly enough - you don't move Felix unless you get an impact bat back in the deal......and you need Garza like a hole in the head

Last year the gap between Felix and Garza was 100... this year, regression will probably make it 200. That's got to be bigger than the gap between Aybar and Castro. So, no.
