Right now, EDLC’s RH counterpart would be Espinal. Yikes. At least with Elly batting RH, he ensures he stays in the game. What I would prefer is more BUNTS from the RH side. If the BA and OPS are gonna be low, try bunting with that speed!

And yet...

Espinal 2024 vs LHP: .264/.327/.495 (.821 OPS)
EDLC 2024 vs LHP: .211/.314/.354 (.667 OPS)

Espinal in 2024 has 6 HR in 107 PA against LHP.
EDLC in 2024 has 5 HR in 171 PA against LHP.

Espinal's actually a career .293 hitter against LHP.

Need to see EDLC drop switch hitting to see if he can hit LHP better as a LHB, because he's struggling hard against them as a RHB.
