O’Koyea Dickson has signed a contract with the Rakuten Golden Eagles of Nippon Professional Baseball.
No word yet on the term length or financial details. Dickson elected to become a free agent in November after being outrighted off the Dodgers’ 40-man roster. The 27-year-old corner outfielder put up good numbers last season at Triple-A Oklahoma City, including an .811 OPS and 24 home runs in 116 games. He should fare well in the power-friendly Japanese league.
