Giants Rumors: Evan Longoria to Receive $5M Contract Buyout Despite Wanting to Stay

Evan Longoria reportedly wants to stay put, but the San Francisco Giants may not be as keen on the idea.

USA Today's Bob Nightengale reported Longoria prefers to remain with the National League West team for one more season, but the Giants "have no plans to pick up his $13 million option and will instead pay a $5 million buyout."

Nightengale listed the Giants, Tampa Bay Rays and Arizona Diamondbacks as the teams the veteran would consider playing for in 2023.
