Orioles' Chris Dickerson: Activated from DL
Dickerson was reinstated from the disabled list with Triple-A Norfolk on Tuesday.
It's unclear what was ailing Dickerson, but nonetheless, he's back in action for the Tides. Prior to getting hurt, the veteran was hitting .245 in 16 games with Norfolk.

Orioles' Chris Dickerson: Headed to Triple-A
Dickerson was assigned to Triple-A Norfolk on Sunday, Steve Melewski of MASN Sports reports.
Dickerson crushed the ball this spring and went 10-for-38 with four home runs and a double over 21 games. However, this performance seems unsustainable for the 34-year-old, as he's never hit six home runs in a major-league season.

Orioles' Chris Dickerson: Included in Grapefruit League lineup
Dickerson (shoulder) will play center field and bat seventh in the order during Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Rays, Jon Meoli of The Baltimore Sun reports.
Dickerson missed about a week of action with a sore left shoulder, but was able to enter Grapefruit League games off the bench the last two days without incident and looks to be in the clear now that he's starting again. Though he's seemingly healthy, Dickerson, a non-roster invitee, isn't under serious consideration for an Opening Day gig and will likely be reassigned to minor-league camp in the coming days.

Orioles' Chris Dickerson: Out with sore shoulder
Dickerson will miss at least a few days with a sore left shoulder, MASN's Roch Kubatko reports.
He dealt with a swollen foot earlier this spring, so the non-roster spring training invitee has had a rocky audition for a role on the 2017 Orioles. Look for him to spend most, if not all of the year at Triple-A Norfolk.

Orioles' Chris Dickerson: Foot issues
Dickerson is dealing with a swollen foot, MASN Sports' Roch Kubatko reports.
Dickerson fouled a ball off his right shin in the Orioles' spring opener and while he initially played through the injury, he experienced renewed swelling after switching to a different pair of cleats in a game over the weekend. He was limited to fielding and hitting drills Monday, but plans to test out the foot by running Tuesday. The veteran outfielder is attending camp on a minor-league deal and appears to be a long shot to make the Opening Day roster.

Orioles' Chris Dickerson: Lands with Baltimore on minor league deal
Dickerson signed a minor league contract with the Orioles on Thursday, Roch Kubatko of MASN reports.
The journeyman outfielder spent the 2016 campaign in the Orioles system at the Double-A level, piecing together an excellent .322/.385/.610 slash line to go with a good walk rate. He struck out nearly a quarter of the time, though, and despite his power and major league experience, he'll likely act as an organizational depth piece.

Chris Dickerson: Getting time off from batting practice
Dickerson will rest for the next two days in an effort to prevent overexertion, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
Rays manager Kevin Cash explains the time off as a component of a plan to prevent the power-hitting first baseman/outfielder from swinging too much. "We're trying to be smart, back him off a little bit,'' Cash said. "He's good to go. We're very happy where he's at.'' Dickerson, coming off back-to-back .300 seasons in Colorado, is hitting .250 with one home run and three RBI over 24 spring training at-bats.
