Phillies' Pedro Florimon: Signs minor league deal with Phillies

Florimon signed a minor league deal with the Phillies on Monday.

Florimon had spent each of the last two seasons in the Pirates organization before being outrighted last month. The 29-year-old, who appeared in only 18 major league games last season, will now look to make the Phillies' roster out of camp, but he figures to have a better chance of landing back in the minors, likely at the Triple-A level. In 107 games at Triple-A last season, Florimon slashed .255/.327/.372 with five home runs, 36 RBI and 14 steals.
