Sun Aug 28 202219:32Evan Longoria Considered Day-To-Day
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Minnesota Twins. The 36-year-old was pulled out of the contest due to left hamstring tightness. It sounds like the organization took him out of the game as a precautionary measure. The veteran slugger could very well miss a few days. Hopefully, this won't be something that forces Longo onto the injured list. Fantasy managers should get an update on Longoria within the next day.

Sun Aug 21 202220:41Evan Longoria Crushes Grand Slam
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria put together a strong performance during Sunday's game against the Colorado Rockies. The veteran slugger went 3-for-4 with a grand slam and a double in the 9-8 victory. It took 11 innings to pull out the win, but Longo's bat was a big factor. The 36-year-old is .258/.340/.489 this season and playing solid defense as well. Sadly, there's not a ton of fantasy value here, but this was a nice performance by Longo.

Mon Aug 8 202218:51Evan Longoria Activated And Starting On Monday
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) has been activated from the 10-day injured list on Monday. The veteran infielder missed two weeks due to a Grade 1 hamstring strain. However, Longoria is back and playing third base and batting fourth against lefty Blake Snell on Monday. The expectation is that Longoria will continue getting a bulk of the playing time at third base down the stretch of the season. Fantasy managers who roster Longo should make sure he's back in their lineups for Monday's contest.

Thu Aug 4 202216:17Evan Longoria Has A Good Chance To Return Monday
San Francisco Giants skipper Gabe Kapler said that there's a "good chance" that third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) will come off the injured list during the series that starts next Monday against the San Diego Padres. Longoria has been out since late July with a Grade 1 hamstring injury, but the injury doesn't look serious enough to keep him out past the designated 10 days. There's a chance that the 36-year-old is sent on a short minor league rehab assignment over the weekend to get his legs back under him. The three-time All-Star has played in only 49 games for the Gigantes this year due to injuries and hasn't played in more than 81 games in the previous two seasons. On top of it in 2022, he's hit a very mediocre .243/.331/.459 with nine home runs, 19 RBI and 21 runs scored in 148 at-bats.

Thu Jul 28 202222:06Evan Longoria Takes Grounders On Thursday
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) took grounders before Thursday's game against the Chicago Cubs. He was placed on the 10-day injured list with a Grade right hamstring strain earlier in the week. The 36-year-old is expected to miss the next few weeks but is trending in the right direction towards an earlier return. He is slashing .243/.331/.459 with nine home runs and 19 RBI over 148 at-bats in 2022. Fantasy managers with open IL spots can continue to stash the veteran. David Villar should see an uptick in at-bats while Longoria is sidelined.

Sun Jul 24 202214:07Evan Longoria Placed On The Injured List
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain. The 36-year-old veteran was forced to leave Saturday's game against the Dodgers early as a result of the injury. Hamstrings can be tricky so it wouldn't be surprising to see Longoria sit out longer than the minimum 10 days. Longo has a .243/.331/.459 batting line to go along with nine home runs and 19 RBI over 148 at-bats on the season. Reliever Gregory Santos has been recalled from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move.

Sun Jul 24 202214:04Evan Longoria Placed On Injured List With Hamstring Strain
The San Francisco Giants placed third baseman Evan Longoria (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list with a right hamstring strain on Sunday. Longoria was removed from Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers due to the injury. After the contest, Giants manager Gabe Kapler stated that Longoria was likely IL-bound, so Sunday's move comes with little surprise. The oft-injured veteran has been held to just 49 games this year due to various injuries. The team recalled right-handed pitcher Gregory Santos from Triple-A to fill his roster spot.

Mon Jul 11 202221:35Evan Longoria Will Begin Rehab Assignment On Thursday
San Francisco Giants' third baseman Evan Longoria (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment on Thursday. The veteran has been sidelined since July 6 with an oblique strain. Barring any setbacks, he would return shortly after the All-Star break. The 36-year-old slashed .242/.331/.462 with eight home runs, 18 RBI, and 18 runs scored across 44 games in 2022 before being placed on the injured list. David Villar will continue to handle third base duties while Longoria is sidelined. Villar is hitting .250 with one homer and two RBI over 27 plate appearances in 2022.

Wed Jul 6 202221:30Evan Longoria Placed On The 10-Day Injured List
San Francisco Giants' third baseman Evan Longoria (oblique) was placed on the 10-day injured list with an oblique strain. The 36-year-old most likely picked up the injury in Tuesday's loss against the Arizona Diamondbacks. He is expected to be sidelined through the All-Star break. Longoria is slashing .242/.331/.462 with eight home runs, 18 RBI, and 18 runs scored across 44 games in 2022. The Giants called up catcher Joey Bart in a corresponding move. Bart is a speculative add in most league formats as he should see plenty of at-bats with Curt Casali and Longoria sidelined. The former top prospect slashed .156/.296/.300 with four homers and seven RBI through 108 plate appearances with the Giants in 2022.

Fri Jul 1 202221:36Evan Longoria Not Playing Friday
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria is not in the starting lineup for his team's game against the Chicago White Sox on Friday. Longoria will be replaced at third base by Jason Vosler, who will bat seventh. The 36-year-old Longoria has been on a hot streak at the plate of late, hitting .435 with three homers, seven runs, and six RBI over his past 10 games. Look for Longoria to return to action for Saturday's matchup when the Sox send right-hander Dylan Cease to the mound.

Thu Jun 2 202216:38Evan Longoria Out Of The Lineup Again On Thursday
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (shoulder) will be held out of the starting lineup for the second straight game on Thursday as the team takes on right-hander Sandy Alcantara and the Miami Marlins. Jason Vosler is making his second consecutive start at third base for the game. Longoria is dealing with right shoulder soreness and the team is being understandably cautious with him. Despite the injury, he managed to pinch hit in Wednesday's game and he went 0-for-1 with a strikeout. The 36-year-old has only appeared in 18 games so far this year and he's slashing .232/.271/.536 with five home runs, 11 RBI and seven runs.

Wed Jun 1 202216:22Evan Longoria Out Of The Lineup On Wednesday
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (shoulder) isn't included in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against right-hander Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies. Longoria exited Tuesday's game with right shoulder soreness. Giants manager Gabe Kapler called Longoria day-to-day. The shoulder issue had been bothering Longoria last week as well, so the team may choose to be extra cautious with the oft-injured veteran. Longoria has played in 17 games this year and he's slashing .236/.276/.545 with five home runs, 11 RBI and seven runs. Jason Vosler will be covering the hot corner on Wednesday.

San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (shoulder) was removed from Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies in the fifth inning due to right shoulder soreness. Tommy La Stella entered to replace him in the game. According to Giants beat writer Maria I. Guardado, Longoria likely won't start on Wednesday, but he could be available off the bench for the game. Longoria was 0-for-1 with a walk prior to being lifted on Tuesday. He has a .236/.276/.545 slash line to go along with five home runs, 11 RBI and seven runs over 17 games so far this year.

Wed May 25 202220:33Evan Longoria Drives In Four On Wednesday
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria played a huge role in Wednesday's 9-3 victory over the New York Mets, plating four runs on two hits, including a three-run home run. After starting the season on the injured list, the former Tampa Bay Ray has been quiet, hitting .225 with a pair of home runs, six RBI, and four runs over 12 games. This production is coming after a resurgent 2021 in which he posted a .833 OPS. Fantasy managers should stay patient with the 36-year-old and hope he can start to find his swing.

Wed May 11 202213:53Evan Longoria To Make Season Debut Wednesday
The San Francisco Giants plan to activate third baseman Evan Longoria (finger) from the injured list and return him to their starting lineup for his season debut on Wednesday against Colorado Rockies right-hander Chad Kuhl. Longoria needed surgery on his finger in late March, but he's finally ready to make his season debut. The 36-year-old veteran third baseman played in five minor league rehab games for Triple-A Sacramento, going 5-for-18 with no home runs or RBI. Longoria is no longer in the prime of his career and is injury prone, but he can contribute as a corner infielder in deep mixed leagues after slashing .261/.351/.482 with 13 home runs, 46 RBI and 45 runs scored in just 81 games for San Francisco in 2021.

Mon May 9 202218:39Evan Longoria Could Be Back This Week
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (hand) began a rehab assignment at Triple-A last week. On Monday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reported a potential timeline for Longoria's return to the majors. Longoria stated that his hand is feeling good enough to return to the Giants "within three or four days." The 36-year-old had surgery on his finger in March. He figures to be a key member of the Giants' offense once he's back in the majors. Last year, over 81 games, he slashed .261/.351/.482 with 13 home runs, 46 RBI and 45 runs.

Wed May 4 202209:19Evan Longoria Goes 1-For-3 In First Rehab Outing
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (finger) began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Sacramento on Tuesday. He went 1-for-3 in the game and scored a run. The 36-year-old underwent surgery on his finger back in March. While we don't have a clear timeline for him at this point, his rehab debut on Tuesday was certainly a big step towards his 2022 debut with the Giants. Jason Vosler has been filling in as the team's third baseman lately, but he'll be taking on a reserve role or he'll be sent to Triple-A once Longoria is back.

Tue Apr 12 202211:30Evan Longoria Doing Limited Baseball Work
San Francisco Giants third baseman Evan Longoria (finger) is progressing well and has been doing limited baseball work. Longoria had surgery to fix a ligament in his right index finger in late March and is now doing baseball activities after having his stitches removed. However, the 36-year-old was originally expected to miss four to six weeks after the surgery, so fantasy managers must continue to be patient. But barring any setbacks, there's a chance that he'll be able to make his season debut for the Giants at the end of this month. The three-time All-Star has become an injury risk after playing in only 81 games last year, and he hit .261 with 13 home runs, 46 RBI and 45 runs scored in 253 at-bats.

Wed Mar 30 202214:18Evan Longoria Expected To Miss Six Weeks
San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler said that the expectation is third baseman Evan Longoria (finger) will miss six weeks after having surgery on his right index finger. Longoria's finger will be immobilized for at least 10 days before he resumes baseball activities after he went under the knife on Tuesday. Wilmer Flores, Thairo Estrada and Tommy La Stella could fill in at the hot corner until Longoria returns around mid-May, with Flores the likely candidate to see the most playing time at third. The 36-year-old Longoria has reached the 20-homer mark just once in his four years with the Giants and had just 13 homers and 46 RBI in 81 games in 2021. With this injury news, he'll begin the year on the waiver wire in shallow mixed leagues.

Mon Mar 28 202223:00Evan Longoria To Have Surgery Tuesday
The San Francisco Giants said that third baseman Evan Longoria (finger) will have surgery on Tuesday to fix a ligament in his right index finger. Longoria's prognosis will be determined after his surgery, but the expectation is that his finger will be immobilized for at least 10 days. The 36-year-old will not be ready for the start of the regular season, and it's a blow to an aging veteran whose fantasy stock was already on the decline. With Longoria set to open the season on the injured list, expect to see Wilmer Flores and Thairo Estrada split playing time at the hot corner in San Francisco until Longoria returns. The former Tampa Bay Ray hit .261/.351/.482 with 13 home runs, 46 RBI and 45 runs scored in just 81 games for the Gigantes in his fourth season with the team last year.
