OF Corey Dickerson (Marlins)
- Colorado Rockies (2013-15)
- Tampa Bay Rays (2016-17)
- Pittsburgh Pirates (2018-19)
- Philadelphia Phillies (2019)
- Miami Marlins (2020 – Present)
A couple of factors just did not make a reunion between Corey Dickerson and the Phillies possible for the 2020 season: being close to the luxury tax threshold, and the team’s outfield depth that includes Andrew McCutchen, Jay Bruce, Nick Williams, Adam Haseley, Roman Quinn, and of course, Bryce Harper.

Last month, the Miami Marlins announced they signed Dickerson to a two-year deal worth $17.5 million. The agreement was first reported by MLB Network’s Jon Heyman in December.
Dickerson, 30, slashed .293/.307/.579 in 34 games last season in red pinstripes, along with 10 doubles, two triples, eight home runs, 34 RBI, three walks and 33 strikeouts. The Phillies acquired the seven-year veteran from the Pittsburgh Pirates on July 31 in exchange for international bonus slot money and player to be named later. He played just 78 games total between the two clubs in 2019 due to injuries.
