Splunk DB Connect - Strip space from CHAR fields?

We have Splunk DB Connect tailing a table in an Oracle DB. Everything is working fine except that the events end up in Splunk with space characters filling out the fields of CHAR type up to the configured length.
ex:

2020-04-27 19:28:59.000, ACTION="replace    ", STATUS="OK   ", TYPE="FRAC        "

Is it possible to configure DB Connect to remove these extra space characters?
is it possible to add something to the SQL statement to accomplish this?
