Eddie Murray had a strike shortened hr title of like 22 homers.....so I'll guess Winfield unless we're drawing a line around era to be pre 94?

Hmm, maybe the guy who played with McCovey.   Shit, what's his name.....Cepeda?  I don't think he had that many, career, tho.  
I guess I'd need a decade hint, this is hard.

He had more than Dave Winfield's 465.

He's also not an obscure name.  Won multiple MVPs and batting titles.  First ballot HOFer

And, maybe this helps.  I would not guess him either.  I do not think of him as a power hitter, although he does hold one MLB power hitting mark

I have his '62 Topps card.

You could have Kershaw over Koufax by now.  
I was looking at the Dodgers all-time best position players, and for a franchise that's been around forever and been so successful, they haven't had many 10+ year guys.  Most of the ones they have are from those 50s teams.  But when you think of the best hitters in Dodgers' history, they'd stay 5-6-7 years and move on.  
Like Eric Karros is 11th all-time in plate appearances.

Kershaw vs Koufax, interesting.  I recall when Koufax was the Bomb.  Atlanta stadium would fill up when he pitched, and they had lousy attendance otherwise.

Koufax was better at the top of his career, I think, clearly, Kershaw better over the entire career.

A modest proposal, a new award for starting pitchers who pass some minimum in innings, "The Express", for a starter who throws over 95 or so.
