Pedro Florimón
Pedro Alexander Florimón Jr. is a Dominican former professional baseball shortstop who played in Major League Baseball from 2011 to 2018. Born December 10, 1986, in La Romana, Dominican Republic, he bats switch and throws right. Florimón signed with the Baltimore Orioles as an undrafted free agent in 2004 and made his MLB debut in 2011. He later played for the Minnesota Twins (2012–2014), Pittsburgh Pirates (2015–2016), and Philadelphia Phillies (2017–2018).
His MLB career batting average was .211, with 12 home runs and 73 RBIs. A highlight came in 2015 when he hit a walk-off triple for the Pirates against the Diamondbacks. He suffered a broken ankle in 2017 and a broken right foot in 2018. After leaving MLB, he spent time in the minors, the Mexican League, and with other organizations.
In 2025, the Pittsburgh Pirates hired him as a development coach for their Low-A Bradenton Marauders. Scouts note Florimón is a fast runner with solid plate discipline, though he had some difficulty with breaking balls.
