Kevin Cash stated that Evan Longoria will bat third in the Rays lineup going forward after starting the season batting fourth. James Loney will typically bat fourth against RHP and Logan Forsythe against LHP. (Marc Topkin)

Fantasy Impact:

Longoria may be more comfortable in that spot in the order, given he has historically batted there is his career. Asdrubal Cabrera had been struggling in the third spot, so this move makes sense for the Rays. This may provide a few more RBI opportunities for Longoria.
