“I got to say I’m definitely old school,” Corey Dickerson told reporters when he spoke on a Zoom call after signing a 1-year/$2.25M with the Washington Nationals earlier this month.
The 33-year-old, 10-year veteran was asked how much he relied on analytics and all of the data available to players these days compared to what they had when he debuted in 2013.
While he is old school, in his own description, he said if there is information he thinks is valuable, he’s not averse to taking it.
“Usually I’m at my best when I just go up there and compete no matter who it is,” he said.
