I'm a total homer. I realistically think CarGo has a chance at the MVP, but I give the Rox ~ 45% chance of winning the division.

Kemp has a career split of .297/.354/.507
I'm just saying that he is going to regress back towards that. Especially when he starts facing some better pitching.

Just coming into his prime and he has a little more help from Ethier. I dont see .400, but I dont know if .330 to .350 is out of his realm.

Kemp hit 326 last season and had 39 HR and 126 RBI. He was awesome on a sucky team. They look better now. I expect him to hit about 40 HR 125 RBI and a 330 average.
I do agree, he is not hitting 400 or even 375 but what I said is possible. He is a stud.

He could very well hit 40 Homers this year. But I don't see him finishing at a 10 WAR again. However after last nights game, I can see him consistently finishing at a 5-6 WAR a year for the next few years.

Could be even better once Magic and Co. can spend some money and get some additional talent in there. Imagine if Kemp had more people to drive in

Lets just see how he does after the Month of April. I am worried that the Dodgers are suddenly going to become the Yankees East. I'm just hoping it's the version of the Yankees that spend big bucks on players who are on the down slopes of their career, and they don't go anywhere.

I have my doubts that you are "worried". lol

Obviously the guy will fall off in production. I just think he has the potential to be better than what we've seen.
