The Washington Nationals agreed to terms Tuesday on a one-year deal with veteran outfielder Corey Dickerson.
Financial details were not disclosed but MLB Network said the 33-year-old journeyman will earn a $2.25 million base salary, with performance bonuses potentially pushing the value to $3 million.
Dickerson batted .267 with six homers and 36 RBIs in 96 games with the St. Louis Cardinals last season.
He is a career .281 hitter with 134 home runs and 452 RBIs in 1,033 games with the Colorado Rockies (2013-15), Tampa Bay Rays (2016-17), Pittsburgh Pirates (2018-19), Philadelphia Phillies (2019), Miami Marlins (2020-21), Toronto Blue Jays (2021) and Cardinals.
Dickerson made the American League All-Star team with the Rays in 2017 and won a Gold Glove with the Pirates in left field in 2018.
Also on Tuesday, the Nationals designated right-hander Andres Machado for assignment.
