I haven't been following the bottom of the roster too closely. What's the plan to unwind all those LHHs when the opposing manager brings in a LHP? Eli White and a lot of L vs L mismatches?

Austin Slater might be worth kicking the tires on. He's 119 wrc+ vs lhp career

Eli and Mateo are going to be primary. they could use the backup catcher Heim.. Farmer is still around I think.

I mentioned earlier, WW needs to break up the lefties as best as possible. Acuan/Olson/Riley/Baldwin/Ozzie/Yaz/Dom/Dubon/Harris might be ok. Not a fan of Ozzie that high up though.
 
this part of the lineup can't be like this.. Yaz/Ozzie/dom/harris.. A lefty would eat that up.. Ozzie sucks so he is not a threat RH anymore.
2nd half Ozzie was hitting LHP a good as ever. He had 1.022 OPS and a 174 wRC+ against LHP in the 2nd half of last season.

but on that note.. I saw an article about spring numbers being real and the blurb on Baldwin said he was hitting the ball harder than any other player along with barreling pitches at a higher rate... Dude is locked in right now
