Hitters

The Dodgers have one of the deepest lineups in the game and this is even before any potential major moves they are planning on making — Francisco Lindor, Mookie Betts, etc. Here is the list of projections for key members of the Dodgers offense:

• Cody Bellinger: 6.2 WAR, .293/.392/.585, 40 HRs, 120 RBIs, 16 SBs
• Max Muncy: 3.8 WAR, .256/.373/.506, 29 HRs, 92 RBIs
• Corey Seager: 3.7 WAR, .279/.373/.506, 19 HRs, 87 RBIs
• Justin Turner: 3.3 WAR, .285/.365/.481, 19 HRs, 66 RBIs
• Gavin Lux: 2.9 WAR, .267/.331/.456, 21 HRs, 79 RBIs, 10 SBs
• Joc Pederson: 2.6 WAR, .249/.340/.513, 27 HRs, 75 RBIs
• Will Smith: 2.5 WAR, .234/.319/.470, 24 HRs, 77 RBIs
• Chris Taylor: 2.1 WAR, .259/.329/.441, 15 HRs, 63 RBIs, 12 SBs

• AJ Pollock: 1.5 WAR, .255/.313/.457, 16 HRs, 55 RBIs, 10 SBs

Pretty good.

Overall

The Dodgers are set up well for the 2020 season and beyond, marked by potential key contributions from sophomores Gavin Lux, Dustin May, and Will Smith. However, they will get key contributions from the bash brothers of Cody Bellinger and Max Muncy as well as veterans like Justin Turner.
