Padres' Alex Dickerson: Won't play in games this week

Manager Andy Green says Dickerson (back) will not see game action this week, Bill Center of MLB.com reports.

Analysis:

Green cautioned that the injury is a "little bit of a slow process," so there's still no definitive timetable for his return. However, the Padres likely won't rush the young slugger back into activities until he feels completely healthy. Dickerson emerged as a power threat for San Diego last season, finishing the year with a .455 slugging percentage and a .788 OPS.
