Thank you all for your response and help with this and a big thank you to jason for this amazing breakdown of the team: i think jasons team might be my final dodgers team listed below. im going to review stats and finalize a team in the next few days. so far here are the finalists and my questions regarding the "final candidates" if anyone can help with these questions below:

CATCHERS
Mike Piazza
Mike Scioscia-good or great? anything he did to be considered a dodger legend?
Roy Campanella

FIRST BASE
Steve Garvey

Eric Karros-does he get your vote, lots of power, hits and 1992 ROY
Gil Hodges

Wes Parker - one of the best fielding 1B ever; But does he get the nod over the power and hits of Karros?

SECOND BASE
Dave Lopes-good or great dodger? with robinson and gilliam locks for the team, is there room for lopes? is h justified as a dodger great?

Steve Sax-good player or legendary dodger?

Jackie Robinson
Jim Gilliam

THIRD BASE
Ron Cey

SHORTSTOP
Bill Russell-with wills and reese and short is there room for russell? what makes him a dodgers great?

Maury Wills
Pee Wee Reese

OUTFIELD
Kirk Gibson-what is great about him besides that famous HR? was a a good dodger or a legendary dodger? the dodger outfield is crowded with greats so he might need more than just a game winning home run to be considered great. your thoughts?

Pedro Guerrero-what makes him great. i loved watching him play, but what say you?

Dusty Baker-a couple good seasons but what bumps him up into legend status?

Tommy Davis
Carl Furillo
Duke Snider
Willie Davis

any love for Brett Butler?
any love for Raul Mondesi?

STARTING PITCHERS
Sandy Koufax
Clayton Kershaw
Orel Hershiser
Fernando Valenzuela
Don Sutton
Don Newcombe

Claude Osteen-What makes him deserving on a legendary staff like this? i think he has awesome stats, but what do you think?
Carl Erskine

Ramon Martinez-will swap him out for drysdale

Bob Welch- had some good seasons and memorable moments. but a dodger great?

what about:
Jerry Reuss
Tommy John
Hideo Nomo
Chan Ho Park

RELIEF PITCHERS

Eric Gagne-was he great or was he on steroids?

Ron Perranoski-i struggle with this one. how good was he in your opinion?

Mike Marshall- dos 2-3 great seasons make a legend?

PINCH HITTERS
