Does Luke Raley need to be limited to only facing right-handed pitching?

Jerry Dipoto stated Raley would primarily see right-handed pitching, but... why?

If you reside in the pacific northwest, you know that today is going to be bitterly cold across the region. Here in Bend, Oregon I’ve got a high of five degrees, a low of negative seven degrees and my Akita could not be happier. Luckily for me, I spent the last two weeks researching and ultimately buying a new truck (this comes just in time for the 24” of snow we are supposed to accumulate today alone”). Although, I plan on not stepping a single toe outside on this balmy Saturday.

I, however, thought this would be the perfect time to do some digging and ask around about new Mariner Luke Raley. One quote from Dipoto following the trade struck me as odd, I wanted to leave it be and move on, but it festered in me and my annoyance with it grew like a weed. If you’re a frequent reader, you know I am genuinely positive about the front office. I believe Jerry Dipoto and Justin Hollander have done a bang-up job up to this point with the rug being pulled out from under them in terms of money.
