It’s a fair question. Longoria is 33 years old and carries a massive contract with him. Would a team really be so desperate for a third baseman that they would take on a bunch of money and give up talent for him?
Definitely not this offseason. Our site has already examined some of the pros and cons of a Longoria deal. The Giants would be best served trying to deal Longoria around the trade deadline to a team wanting to make a playoff push that craves an experienced player who could be the missing piece.
He would be a very expensive missing piece though.
