During the 2010–11 and 2011–12 seasons he played on loan to Perugia Basket. In 2012 he went to Auxilium Torino,[1] where he played for only one season. In 2013 he signed a contract with Aquila Basket Trento in Serie A2 Basket.[2] He still plays in the Trento's major basketball club in the Italian LBA.[3]

On February 3, 2016, during a match of the Last 32 round in EuroCup against Pallacanestro Reggiana, he was severely injured on the left knee.[4] and he had to undergo an operation on the front crusader.[5] For that reason he blasted the rest of the season.[6] A long rehabilitation took at the Isokinetic Centre in Bologna, Italy, where he got a full recovery after the operation.

On November 30, 2017, Baldi Rossi signed a deal with Segafredo Virtus Bologna. His contract ran through 2019.[7] He signed a two-year deal with Pallacanestro Reggiana on July 16, 2020.[8]

In 2017 Filippo Baldi Rossi officially entered into the experimental Italian Senior Basketball Team. He was in the 12s of coach Ettore Messina for EuroBasket 2017 in Israel and Turkey, because of Davide Pascolo who missed EuroBasket with a right knee injury.[10]
