San Diego Padres Bring Back Outfielder Alex Dickerson

Do you want hot stove action? Well, weeks after he was reinstated from the disabled list and elected free agency, outfielder Alex Dickerson is returning to the San Diego Padres on a minor league deal.

The 28-year-old outfielder hasn’t appeared in a major league game since 2016 after two major injuries put him on the shelf for the last two years. Dickerson missed the 2017 season after undergoing surgery for a bulging disk and then missed 2018 thanks to Tommy John surgery.

Padres manager Andy Green has always been a fan of Dickerson’s ability and approach at the plate.
