Rays' Evan Longoria: Goes 3-for-5 with two doubles

Longoria went 3-for-5 with two doubles, an RBI and two runs during Saturday's win over Oakland in the first game of the Rays' doubleheader.

The veteran is having another solid season with a .255/.320/.426 slash line, nine homers, 34 RBI and 33 runs, but it could prove difficult for him to repeat his 2016 numbers. Additionally, it appears last season was an outlier considering Longoria posted a .419 slugging percentage over the 2014 and 2015 campaigns. It's probably best to value Longoria as a middle-of-the-pack contributor and not a high-end third baseman.
