Dickerson signed a one-year, $1 million contract with Atlanta on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson underwhelmed in 2021, as he slashed .233/.304/.420 with 13 home runs, 38 RBI and 37 runs across 111 appearances with the Giants. The 31-year-old will attempt to right the ship on his major-league deal with Atlanta, but he'll presumably have to compete for a roster spot during spring training since his salary isn't guaranteed. Even if he's able to make the team's Opening Day roster, Dickerson will presumably take on a backup role after Atlanta signed Eddie Rosario on Wednesday.

Dickerson was designated for assignment by the Giants on Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson had an unremarkable 2021 season, hitting .233/.304/.420 (good for a 97 wRC+) with 13 homers in 312 plate appearances. It's possible he lands in a platoon role elsewhere, as he did produce an out-of-nowhere 151 wRC+ in 170 plate appearances in 2020, but the upside seems fairly low for a player with a modest track record heading into his age-32 season.

Dickerson (foot) isn't starting Game 3 of the NLDS against the Dodgers on Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson will be out of the lineup for a third straight contest, but he went 0-for-1 with a strikeout as a pinch hitter in Saturday's Game 2 win. He'll likely be available off the bench once again, but LaMonte Wade, Steven Duggar and Mike Yastrzemski will start in the outfield from left to right.

EDGE Analysis
Dickerson didn't appear in Friday's Game 1 win, and he'll remain out of the lineup due to a foot injury. However, it seems likely that the 31-year-old will be available off the bench given his inclusion on the NLDS roster.

Dickerson (foot) is out of the lineup for Game 1 of the NLCS against the Dodgers on Friday, Amy Gutierrez of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson was last in the lineup Sept. 28 when he was hit by a pitch, but his inclusion on the NLCS roster indicates there's not much concern over the injury. He finished 2021 with a .233/.304/.420 slash line in 111 games, and the Giants will start Kris Bryant and LaMonte Wade in the corner outfield spots in Game 1.

EDGE Analysis
Dickerson has been out of the lineup since being hit by a pitch on the left foot Tuesday, though his appearance as a pinch hitter Saturday indicates he's close to being fully healthy. Kris Bryant will move to left field while LaMonte Wade starts in right Sunday.

Dickerson (foot) remains out of the lineup Thursday against Arizona, Maria I. Guardado of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson was out of Wednesday's lineup after being by a pitch in the foot Tuesday. There was no significant damage discovered, so it's unclear whether his absence Thursday is due to an injury or because left-hander Madison Bumgarner is on the mound. Austin Slater will take over in center field and hit atop the order.

Dickerson (foot) isn't starting Wednesday's game against Arizona, Amy Gutierrez of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson was removed from Tuesday's contest after he was hit by a pitch on the foot, but he underwent X-rays after the game that came back negative. He's still considered day-to-day, but Kris Bryant will shift to left field while Wilmer Flores starts at first base.
