Padres' Pedro Florimon: Reaches MiLB deal with Friars
Pedro Florimon signed a minor-league contract with the San Diego Padres on Jan. 18.The 34-year-old infielder has seen action at the big-league level in parts of eight seasons, with his last appearance coming with the Phillies in 2018. At this stage of his career, Florimon seems unlikely to get another look in the majors, but he'll at least provide the Padres organization with some experienced depth in the middle infield at Triple-A El Paso.

He's gone 4-for-9 at the dish with three RBI and three runs scored to go along with a pair of homers.

He owns a career .211/.270/.319 slash line. His positional flexibility gives him multiple ways to receive playing time in the event of an injury, but he's unlikely to have significant fantasy value.

Florimon had a .263/.323/.491 slash line in 62 plate appearances prior to the injury.

Phillies' Pedro Florimon: Moves rehab to Double-A
Pedro Florimon (foot) shifted his rehab assignment to Double-A Reading last week and has made five appearances for the affiliate, going 5-for-21 with a home run and three walks in those contests.The utility man began his rehab assignment in the Gulf Coast League on Aug. 11, so the Philadelphia Phillies will presumably keep him in the minors for the full 20-day window before activating him from the 60-day disabled list Sept. 1 when rosters expand. Florimon probably won't be in line for much more than the occasional pinch-hitting opportunity during the season's final month with the Phillies likely to lean heavily on their regulars as they aim to secure a playoff spot.

Phillies' Pedro Florimon: Initiates rehab assignment
Pedro Florimon (foot) began a rehab assignment Monday with the Philadelphia Phillies' rookie-level Gulf Coast League affiliate, drawing the start in right field and finishing 1-for-4 with a run scored.Florimon played five innings in the field before exiting in what was his first game action at any level since May 29. Now fully recovered from the fractured right foot that has sidelined him for two and a half months, Florimon will likely need at least a week in the minors to get in at-bats and ease back into playing full nine-inning contests. Since Florimon wasn't a core contributor for the Phillies prior to landing on the disabled list, the team could wait until rosters expand in September before activating the utility man.
