PrintThe Dodgers may not have any super stars, or any one who will make the 2008 All-Star team except for Russel Martin, but it would not surprise me in the least, if every single one of those players in the poll have at least an 800 OPS in 2008.
I started the ball rolling by voting for Loney but I was shocked that he will win the popular vote.

.800 OPS
Last year, LuGo hit .278/.359/.433 for a 101 OPS+, and Ethier hit .284/.350/.452 for a 103 OPS+, but for sake of argument, let's say an OPS of .790 to .800 will represent an OPS of 100.
There have only been 16 NL teams post integration with at least 8 players (with 300+ PA) with an OPS+ of at least 100.

I think a lineup of (in position order):
Martin
Loney
Kent
LaRoche
Furcal
Ethier
Jones
Kemp
can join that list.
And I voted for Loney too.
Thinking further, I think it's possible to have all eight players to have an OPS of more than 800, but also less than 900. That would be strange.
