Is Evan Longoria going to be with the Rays forever?

Watching Longoria play against the Jays and wondered this. The guy is having a very good season, both offensively & defensively, he has managed to stay very healthy throughout his career. He is playing on and has played on some bad teams. Longoria is signed through 2022, at which he will be in his late-thirties.
I just wondered why he hasn't left Tampa yet. Is it his contract? Or maybe that is just where he wants to play. Just seems like someone else would have made a play for him at some point. Link to career numbers below

He signed the extension after the 2012 season when things were really looking up for them (they won 90 games and were stacked with young pitching). I bet he gets dealt at some point. He's had a great bounce back year and has fairly reasonable contract to move
Also he's only 30 and it seems like he's been around for forever

As a Red Sox fan, I'll be glad when he's out of the AL East. Seems like he always comes up with big games when he plays Boston.

Honestly, who really cares about Major League Baseball anymore? Especially with NFL and NCAA football in season.

He'll never leave. Signed a lifetime deal with the Pet Pal Animal Shelter.

Well the only under .500 years we've had since he's been here have been the past 3 years and we were at least in shouting distance of .500 in 2014 and 2015 (this year has been awful).
But yeah, i think at some point they need to strongly consider trading him. The return would have to be pretty big, however. That's a really team-friendly contract for the quality of player longo is.

Tampa fricked him when they let Maddon and the GM walk. It's been a shitshow ever since.

He'll be a Yankee before it's over. He'll do like Boggs did in the 90's.
