The Rays will now head to Spring Training with more offensive depth than at any time in recent memory.
"If you look at the types of lineups that we can run out next year vs. right-handed pitching, vs. left-handed pitching, it's a lot more dynamic," said Rays executive president of baseball operations Matt Silverman. "There's a lot more power. It's a more intimidating lineup than we've had in the past, and that was one of the goals in the offseason, to enhance the offensive side while maintaining the defensive skills that we have."
Dickerson, 26, experienced an injury-shortened 2015 season due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot then a broken rib.
