4 years agoSan Francisco Giants' third baseman Evan Longoria has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a left shoulder strain. Longoria slammed into Brandon Crawford during Saturday's game as both players were going after an Anthony Rizzo soft hit ground ball. Crawford was able to stay in the game but Longo took the brunt of the hit. It's unfortunate news for the Giants, fantasy managers, and Longoria himself who is having a resurgent season. He's slashing .280/.376/.516 with nine home runs and 30 RBI across 161 at-bats. The veteran third baseman is expected to be our 4-6 weeks. Wilmer Flores should help fill the void at the hot corner and Thairo Estrada has been recalled from Triple-A Sacramento in a corresponding move.--Jon Mathisen - RotoBaller
