The Nationals requested unconditional release waivers on Dickerson following Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Brewers, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson came off the bench Wednesday, going hitless in his lone at-bat before coming around to score the game-tying run in the ninth inning on a throwing error. The 34-year-old spent most of the season in the strong side of a platoon in left field with Stone Garrett and maintained a .250/.283/.354 slash line with two home runs and 17 RBI over 151 plate appearances. Since they weren't able to find any takers for Dickerson ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, the 46-63 Nationals will move on from the veteran, who was on an expiring deal and wasn't part of the rebuilding organization's future. It's unclear if Washington plans to give Garrett a look in an everyday role or if another outfielder will be called up from the minors to replace Dickerson.

Dickerson is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
The Giants are bringing a lefty (Scott Alexander) to the hill as their opening pitcher, so the lefty-hitting Dickerson will get a breather in the series finale. Platoon mate Stone Garrett will replace Dickerson in left field and bat fifth.

Dickerson is not in the lineup for Friday's contest versus the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Lefty Alex Wood is starting for San Francisco, so Dickerson will defer to short-side platoon mate Stone Garrett in left field. Dickerson has made just one start against a lefty all season.

Dickerson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Though he'll be taking a seat Monday with southpaw Drew Smyly on the bump for Chicago, the lefty-hitting Dickerson will likely start the remaining two games of the series with the Cubs, who will bring right-handers Jameson Taillon and Kyle Hendricks to the hill Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. Dickerson's platoon mate, Stone Garrett, will replace him in left field Monday.

Dickerson (undisclosed) is in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson ran into the wall while making a catch Saturday and eventually left the game. It's possible he was lifted for matchup reasons, though the Nationals never clarified either way. Dickerson will man left field and bat seventh Sunday against right-hander Jack Flaherty.

Dickerson was pinch hit for in the seventh inning of Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader after running into the wall while making a catch in the sixth inning, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
A left-handed pitcher came in the game for St. Louis before Dickerson was scheduled to hit, so it's possible the Nationals simply opted for a more favorable matchup by sending Stone Garrett to the plate. Either way, the team will take a look at Dickerson and should provide an update on his status in the near future.

Dickerson isn't starting Saturday against the Rangers, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
Andrew Heaney will start on the bump for Texas, meaning the lefty-hitting Dickerson will take a seat to begin Saturday's game. Stone Garrett will start in left field and bat sixth while Dickerson sits.
