Ernie Clement himself is the one who's already been cannibalizing playing time for other more deserving players against RHP all season. If IKF is the one who finally convinces John Schneider to stop trotting Ernie's 66 wRC+ vs. RHP out there every day, that's likely a good thing. Also when IKF and Ernie were both here last season IKF got more playing time, at 3B and in general.
Otherwise we'll just have to wait until Santander gets back for Ernie to get displaced.
