Based on the schedules I've tracked that last couple of days you should be safe. These are the current flights that appear to be remote stand operated:

DL 4708 SFO-LAX (sked arr 10:09am)
DL 4771 SFO-LAX (sked arr 11:15am)
DL 4440 SFO-LAX (sked arr 10:16pm)

DL 4799 OAK-LAX (sked arr 7:55am)
DL 4572 OAK-LAX (sked arr 9:19pm)

DL 4623 SAN-LAX (sked arr 7:09am)

DL 4841 PHX-LAX (sked arr 11:22am)

If travel plans involve one of these and you're making a connection be sure to allow plenty of transit time in LAX. A 35-minute connection simply won't work.

Edited to add this: upon checking, it looks like DL has change the minimum connecting time for domestic-to-domestic flights at LAX to 1h10mn. Last time I recall their MCT at LAX was 40 or 50 minutes. That should help alleviate any misconnects as a result of remote standing.
