Corey Dickerson Placed On IL For Foot Contusion

By Tim Dierkes | June 15, 2021 at 3:30pm CDT

Marlins left fielder Corey Dickerson is headed to the IL, manager Don Mattingly told reporters today.  Mattingly said Dickerson had an MRI and it’s “not very promising,” according to SportsGrid’s Craig Mish.  The team later described Dickerson’s injury as a “left foot contusion.”  Earlier today, we learned that the Marlins are calling up prospect Jesus Sanchez from Triple-A.  Sanchez is batting fifth against the Cardinals’ Kwang Hyun Kim, who came off the IL today.

With 45 days until the trade deadline, it appears the last-place Marlins may have missed their chance to recoup some value on Dickerson.  The 32-year-old wasn’t exactly setting the world on fire with a 102 wRC+, the Marlins may have been able to unload the $2.8MM that will remain on Dickerson’s contract come July 30th.  Dickerson had signed a two-year, $17.5MM free agent deal with the Marlins in January 2020.  Dickerson’s contract still marks by far the largest free agent signing of the Bruce Sherman/Derek Jeter era, with no one else topping $5MM.

The Marlins still have a solid trade chip in center fielder Starling Marte, who owns a 174 wRC+ on the season.  Shortstop Miguel Rojas may also generate interest, though the club holds a $5.5M club option for 2022 that will become guaranteed if he reaches 500 plate appearances.  Though controlled through 2022, first baseman Jesus Aguilar may also be available.  Adam Duvall, also controlled through ’22, has had a rough year so far.  On the pitching side, top reliever Yimi Garcia is slated for free agency and should be popular on the trade market.

    Not a good day to have an MRI if you are a Tampa Bay Ray………

    Hopefully Sanchez can carry over his hot bat to the majors and stays with the ball club for good.

    It’s hard to believe he’s only 32. It seems like he’s been around for a long time.

    Marte and Garcia should absolutely be traded.. I could see the Marlins getting back a total of 4 good to average prospects for those two.. and honestly I would even consider trading Pablo Lopez or Elieser Hernandez for a young hitter or two. The team clearly needs an infielder who can provide some type of hitting. Rojas should be placed in a utility role because Berti ain’t cuttin it. Nor is Isan Diaz.

      Trading Pablo would require the Fish getting back a young stud which the Fish clearly aren’t opposers too since they traded another good pitcher for Jazz.

      Question is what young and controllable hitter is available ?

      I can see them trade Gracia to Houston for Alex De Goti. He’s a middle infielder and a hometown kid. Could work well for both sides. Astros need some bullpen help and Marlins get a controllable hitter. And about Isan, I think he just needs more playing time so he can raise the batting average and OBP.

    Geez. Marlins are getting hit hard. Dickerson is one of the most enjoyable players to watch. Consistently does everything right.

      Agreed. I enjoyed watching him as a Pirate. Just quietly consistent. It’s a shame his tenure as a Marlin hasn’t gone nearly as well as one might have expected.

        Yeah. He has good ABs, but doesn’t end them with many good results.

    Let the kids play! Trade all the stop gap veterans. If the Marlins can get some magic beans for Dickerson, I’d be happy.

    If he’s healthy in a couple to a few weeks and plays ok someone will give up a couple prospects for him. He’s too capable not to go get.

    After he gets back, we need to move him so we can play the kids.
