Fantasy Impact:
Flores, the Pirates' No. 8 prospect, will make his debut whenever he is in the lineup. He has posted a .280/.354/.470 slash line with 22 home runs in 133 games in the minors this season. With the Pirates out of a playoff race, he could see the majority of starts behind the plate and some opportunities at first base and designated hitter. In a corresponding move, Liover Peguero was optioned to Triple-A.
