Longoria (hamstring) will serve as the designated hitter Tuesday against the Padres, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria sat out Monday's contest after suffering a mild hamstring injury during Sunday's matchup with Minnesota, but he'll rejoin the starting nine after missing only one game. The 36-year-old has a .918 OPS through 16 games in August, though he's 1-for-11 with a double, a run and six strikeouts over his past four appearances.

Longoria (hamstring) isn't starting Monday's game against the Padres, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria suffered a right hamstring injury during Sunday's matchup against the Twins, and while the injury was later reported to be a mild one, he'll miss at least one game while on the mend. The third baseman will continue to be considered day-to-day until further notice.

Longoria (hamstring) isn't believed to be dealing with a significant injury, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria exited Sunday's game against the Twins due to left hamstring tightness, but he isn't expected to require a trip to the injured list. If the Giants hold the 36-year-old out for any games, J.D. Davis will likely see increased playing time.

Longoria was removed in the fifth inning of Sunday's game against the Twins with left hamstring tightness, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. He went 1-for-3 with a double and a run prior to departing.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria previously spent 14 days on the shelf with a right hamstring injury coming out off the All-Star break, but it's the other hamstring that's presenting discomfort this time around. The Giants may send Longoria in for an MRI before deciding his next steps, but given his advancing age and persistent issues with lower-body injuries, it wouldn't be surprising if he required another stint on the injured list. J.D. Davis would likely benefit the most from a playing-time standpoint if Longoria is deactivated again.

Longoria isn't starting Saturday against the Twins, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria is getting a breather after he went 0-for-7 with five strikeouts over the last two games. Wilmer Flores will take his place at the hot corner and bat third Saturday.

Longoria went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Tuesday's win over the Tigers.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria singled in the top of the fourth inning before later ripping a two-run home run off reliever Daniel Norris in the top of the sixth frame. The long ball was his 12th of the season and he has now homered in consecutive games. Since being reinstated from the 10-day injured list Aug. 8, the 36-year-old has batted .353 with three home runs, nine RBI and seven runs over 34 at-bats in 12 games.

Longoria went 3-for-4 with a home run, a double, four RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's extra-innings victory over the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran third baseman powered the Giants' offense with a grand slam in the seventh inning, his 11th home run on the campaign. Longoria is now batting .333 with two home runs and seven RBI since his return from the IL on Aug. 8. If he qualified, Longoria would now be seventh among third baseman in slugging percentage, so he could be a sneaky option for fantasy managers looking for a third baseman to plug into their lineup down the stretch.

Longoria is not in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Rockies, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria went 0-for-4 in the series opener, and he will now miss out on a Coors Field game as the Giants go with J.D. Davis at third base and Wilmer Flores at DH against right-hander Ryan Feltner. The team has been giving the veteran maintenance days here and there -- easily justified given his history and the fact that he's just getting past a hamstring injury.

Longoria is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Diamondbacks, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria has appeared in seven games since returning from the injured list Aug. 8 and has gone 5-for-19 with a home run, three RBI and four runs. Tommy La Stella will serve as the designated hitter while J.D. Davis starts at third base.

Longoria went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run, an additional run scored and a walk in a 6-1 win against the Diamondbacks on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Longoria has been eased into action since returning from the injured list Aug. 8 -- Monday's start was only his third in seven games over that stretch. His insertion into the lineup paid dividends, as he slugged a two-run shot off ex-teammate Madison Bumgarner in the fourth inning. Longoria now has 10 homers in 2022, a mark he's reached in every one of his big-league campaigns aside from the shortened 2020 season.
