Phillies' Pedro Florimon starting in left field against Giants
Philadelphia Phillies left fielder Pedro Florimon is batting seventh on Sunday against the San Francisco Giants.
The only notable thing about Florimon is that he's seen all of 54 major-league plate appearances in the last three years, collecting a whopping eight hits on them for a triple-slash line of .160/.222/.280. He has a ludicrous 46.3 percent strikeout rate in those plate appearances. He's starting today in place of Cameron Rupp.
Neither Florimon nor the rest of the Phillies should be expected to have a great outing today, with by far the worst implied total (3.28) on a full slate, facing down Giants' ace Madison Bumgarner in pitcher paradise AT&T Park.
