The final MLB All-Star Game voting update was released on Monday, and it revealed that a whopping five Los Angeles Dodgers players are among the top-five vote-getters at their respective positions.

After another strong week of support, Matt Kemp remains in front of Washington Nationals star Bryce Harper for second among National League outfielders with 2,046,534 votes. Barring any significant changes, Kemp will start in his first Midsummer Classic since the 2012 season.

Nick Markakis of the Atlanta Braves leads all NL outfielders with 2,457,648 votes, followed by Kemp and then Harper (1,777,221), Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon (1,310,107) and Ronald Acuna Jr. of the Atlanta Braves (1,204,321).

Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig remained in the top 15, garnering 509,936 votes, although ranking 15th, he likely will not be starting this year.

Cody Bellinger also maintained his standing at fourth among NL first basemen with 661,485 votes. Still ahead of him are the Braves’ Freddie Freeman (2,905,301), the Chicago Cubs’ Anthony Rizzo (1,178,915) and the San Francisco Giants’ Brandon Belt (802,027).

Logan Forsythe remained fifth among NL second basemen with 379,325 votes. The Braves’ Ozzie Albies remains the leader at his position, although Scooter Gennett of the Cincinnati Reds and Javier Baez of the Cubs are just slightly behind him.

Justin Turner is also in the top five at his position with 496,912 votes, but he is well behind the third base leader, Nolan Arenado of the Colorado Rockies, who is third overall among NL vote-getters behind only Freeman and Markakis with 2,326,711.

Dodgers shortstop Chris Taylor also cracked the top five at his position on this update, although at 498,570 he is firmly behind Giants’ Brandon Crawford (2,303,516).

Fans can continue casting their votes a total of five times per day, up to a maximum of 35 ballots, voting concludes in just a few days on July 5 at 8:59 p.m. PT.
