Davis has to do it for longer than a month. While I think he will be very close to or maybe even better than Longoria, I think the answer is pretty clear so far.

obviously right now rate differences dont make up for 1 month v 3 months and its longoria far and away.
although, if davis maintained his exact pace from here on out, and longoria did the same, they would both end up with 31 HRs exactly. Of course, Davis cant hold this pace. But if he does just close (say a .900 ops and 13 more HRs) there could be a contest.
also, joba is still a rookie right? if he can finish really well he could get into it.
right now the odds are obviously way in longoria's favor.

Davis has been spectacular, if he had started in April it might be interesting
one thing to also consider is Longoria is also playing for a 1st place team, hitting in the middle of the lineup and playing Gold Glove caliber defense.
