Scout Thinks Evan Longoria Could Be On Trading Block

Evan Longoria, 3B, Rays — One of the many veteran scouts on hand for the Red Sox-Rays series last week predicted Longoria would get traded. “He’s got to be sick of the situation here and I’m sure he wants to win before he gets too old,” the scout said. “He could help them replenish their farm system. He’s an attractive player.” Now the downside: Longoria has a six-year, $100 million extension that starts next season. He is the face of the Rays, but that hasn’t got them very far in terms of attendance. Would Joe Maddon’s Cubs be a fit?
