Kemp is both the most and least likely Dodgers candidate to get voted in through the 2018 Camping World MLB All-Star Ballot process. He's a two-time All-Star, but his last appearance was in 2012.
Since then there have been injuries and trades, but over the first two months of the season Kemp is unleashing a rebound not even the Dodgers expected when they reacquired him in a salary swap with Atlanta in December.

Kemp is having the best offensive season of any Dodger, and the club has needed every bit of it in lieu of their three All-Star position players from last year -- Corey Seager, who is out for the season; Justin Turner, who missed the first six weeks this year; and Cody Bellinger, slumping offensively after earning National League Rookie of the Year last season.
At the end of May, Kemp was even leading the league in batting average. The Dodgers haven't had a batting champ in 55 years -- Tommy Davis, who won back-to-back titles in 1962-63.
Kemp downplayed the early talk of awards.
"Those things are always fun, but it's more for the family and friends and all that," he said. "Honestly, all I care about is us getting to the playoffs and winning a championship. My expectations, my plan every year, is to drive in runs and make things happen for the team. All the other things are icing on the cake."
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, who will skipper the NL All-Star team, concedes that Kemp is surprising even him.
"A guy that has his track record, the work ethic, the professionalism, the hit tool. Self-admittedly, he's learning some things in his 10th year, as far as approaching pitchers, talking to the hitters and coaches. Matt's really growing," Roberts added. "You see his at-bat quality. He's always been a guy that can drive in runs and get a hit and slug a little bit, but to take the walk, stay out of the double play, stay on a slider down and away and use the whole field, I haven't seen that consistently, even at his best. There's a lot of good things going on with Matt."
Bellinger (first base) and Turner (third base) are also on the ballot, as are John Forsythe (second base), Chris Taylor (shortstop), Yasmani Grandal (catcher) and Yasiel Puig and Joc Pederson (outfield).
