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

I looked and he does not have a no-trade clause with the extension he signed, but would have 10-5 rights beginning in 2018.

I don't know why Longoria ever agreed to that contract in the first place. $100 million for 6 years is peanuts for a player of his caliber. If he had just played out his original contract, he would be have been a free agent after this season and looking at a Cano-like deal. Longoria must really love the Tampa Bay area because his career decisions have been puzzling to say the least.
