Fri Jun 14 2013 | 23:38 | Pedro Florimon goes hitless in loss to Tigers |
Pedro Florimon had a rough night at the dish in Friday's loss to the Tigers, going 0-for-3 with a strikeout. |
Florimon has been especially brutal in the month of June, where he's 4-for-39 (.103) with one RBI and 10 strikeouts. He continues to play on a nightly basis because the Twins lack better options, but his paltry .228/.299/.335 line should be avoided in all fantasy formats. |

Sat Feb 16 2013 | 22:13 | Florimon likely to start at shortstop for MIN |
Pedro Florimon is the leading candidate start at shortstop for the Twins in 2013. |
Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said Saturday that Florimon's primary competition for the job, Brian Dozier, will play almost exclusively at second base during spring training. Florimon is an extremely skilled defender, but offers very little in the way of offensive aptitude. He has flashed double-digit stolen base potential in the minor leagues, but should be avoided in all but the very deepest of fantasy leagues. |

Tue Aug 21 2012 | 01:42 | Pedro Florimon goes 3-for-3 |
Pedro Florimon went 3-for-3 with a walk, a steal and three runs scored against the A's on Monday. |
Florimon isn't going to hit -- no way, no how -- but he's good enough defensively that he's probably the Twins' best option at shortstop right now. AL-only leaguers should expect very little, but if he gets enough at-bats, he could have a tiny bit of value. |

Tue Aug 14 2012 | 23:34 | Twins call up INF Florimon from Triple-A |
Twins purchased the contract of INF Pedro Florimon from Triple-A Rochester. |
He'll take the place of Brian Dozier on the active roster. Florimon, who was claimed off waivers from the Orioles last December, is a .249/.321/.354 hitter over parts of seven seasons in the minors, so we're not optimistic he'll be much better. |
