2020 Giants season preview: Third baseman Evan Longoria

Evan Longoria stepped up his game last year after a disappointing debut with the San Francisco Giants in 2018. Can he continue that trend and improve upon his 2019 performance?

With Kevin Pillar gone, Longoria will have to be one of the heavy lifters in the Giants offense. Last season, he hit .254/.325/.437 with 20 home runs and 69 RBI.

Obviously, those numbers are a far cry from his prime days as a member of the Tampa Bay Rays, but he was still a solid contributor and they will need more of the same in 2020.
