Dickerson is out of the lineup for Thursday's game against the Dodgers.
EDGE Analysis
The lefty-hitting Dickerson's absence from the lineup against a lefty starting pitcher (Tyler Anderson) doesn't come as a major surprise, but Dickerson (or Juan Yepez) will likely see his opportunities against right-handed pitching take a major hit moving forward with Tyler O'Neill (hamstring/wrist) back in action Thursday after a stint on the 10-day injured list. Dickerson started in each of the Cardinals' previous five games, going 4-for-17 with a home run, two doubles, two walks, three RBI and three additional runs.

Dickerson went 2-for-3 with a home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Monday's 6-1 win over the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
His two-run blast off Aaron Nola in the seventh inning gave the Cardinals some insurance runs. It was Dickerson's first homer in three games since returning from a month-long absence due to a calf injury and only his third of the season, but he appears to be the top option for manager Oliver Marmol in left field while Tyler O'Neill (hamstring/wrist) is on the shelf.

Dickerson will start in left field and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson has now started in each of the Cardinals' three games since he was reinstated from the injured list Saturday. He went 0-for-6 with a pair of walks in the final two games of the weekend and should be able to hold down a regular spot in the lineup versus right-handed pitching until Tyler O'Neill (hamstring/wrist) is ready to come off the injured list.

Dickerson (calf) was reinstated from the 10-day injured list and is starting Saturday's game against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson was on the injured list for just over a month, but he'll rejoin the lineup for Saturday's matchup. Tyler O'Neill (hamstring/wrist) remains on the IL, so Dickerson should see his fair share of playing time in left field in the near future. Prior to his absence, Dickerson slashed .194/.245/.286 with two homers, 11 runs and 11 RBI over 38 games.

Dickerson (calf) is back with the big-league club and will be activated from the injured list Saturday or Sunday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson started against most righties in the early part of the season but struggled to a .194/.245/.286 line in 38 games before straining his left calf. He's nearly ready to go after a month-long absence, though he may not have a regular role to return to due to the emergence of rookies Juan Yepez and Brendan Donovan.

Dickerson (calf) is set to resume his rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson has had a couple of setbacks due to lingering soreness in his strained left calf. His rehab was paused June 24, but Denton reports the veteran outfielder will play five innings in right field for Memphis on Wednesday. Dickerson will likely need multiple games to get back up to speed and to prove that his calf is at full strength again.

Dickerson (calf) had his rehab assignment paused Friday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson resumed his rehab assignment Tuesday, but he's still dealing with a calf injury and is being examined further by the team's medical staff. Although he took batting practice Friday, it's not yet clear when he'll be able to head back to Triple-A Memphis to resume his rehab stint.

Dickerson (calf) went 2-for-2 with a double for Triple-A Memphis in its game Tuesday versus Indianapolis.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson's rehab assignment hit a setback over the weekend in the form of renewed soreness in his strained left calf, but he was only out for a couple of days. The veteran outfielder will likely need a few more rehab games, including potentially a start or two in the field, before he'd be ready to be activated from the 10-day injured list.

Dickerson is experiencing renewed soreness in his strained left calf, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson went 1-for-3 with a home run and two RBI for Triple-A Memphis on Thursday, but the recurring soreness in his calf kept him out of the lineup over the weekend. Goold reports that the outfielder will try to resume his rehab Tuesday, but he'll likely need multiple appearances to prove his health and get his timing back at the plate. As such, it seems unlikely he'll be back during the upcoming four-game road series versus the Brewers.

Dickerson (calf) will report to Triple-A Memphis to begin a rehab assignment Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Dickerson has been sidelined since exiting a June 4 game against the Cubs with a left calf strain. He had been starting to see more frequent starts as a designated hitter and corner outfielder prior to getting hurt, but Dickerson will likely have to settle for a lesser role once he's healthy. Since Dickerson was deactivated, the Cardinals have returned Tyler O'Neill and Dylan Carlson from the 10-day injured list, while rookies Nolan Gorman and Brendan Donovan have established themselves as everyday players.
