Rays' Corey Dickerson: Surging at the plate over last week

Dickerson is slashing .350/.435/.800 with three doubles, two homers and five RBI during his current six-game hitting streak, Roger Mooney of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Analysis:

The 27-year-old slugger has struggled overall at the plate this season, but is surging over the last week. Dickerson went 1-for-3 with a single, a walk and a run in Sunday's 8-4 victory over the Rangers, equaling his longest hitting streak of the season. Despite the change in home parks from Coors Field to Tropicana Field, Dickerson has the second-highest homer (17) and RBI totals (48) of his major league career in 2016, with a solid chance of exceeding his personal best of 24 round-trippers set back in 2014.
