Corey Dickerson Lands One-Year Deal With Nationals
The Washington Nationals agreed to a one-year deal worth $2.25 million with free-agent outfielder Corey Dickerson on Tuesday. Dickerson can make an extra $750,000 in 2023 via performance bonuses. The rebuilding Nats will take a chance on the 33-year-old veteran outfielder after he slashed .267/.300/.399 with a .698 OPS, six home runs, 36 RBI and 28 runs scored in 297 plate appearances and 96 games with the St. Louis Cardinals in 2022. In a Washington outfield with very few proven players at the major-league level, Dickerson should be in line to enter the 2023 campaign in the strong side of a platoon against right-handed pitchers in left field. It will give him some appeal in deep mixed leagues for playing time alone, but Dickerson doesn't have much upside at this point in his career.
