Jose Dickson

Organization Prospect Rankings

• 
  Ranked Detroit Tigers #28 prospect in 2025
  BA Grade/Risk: 45/Extreme.
  
  Track Record: The Tigers signed Dickson for $397,500 out of the Dominican Republic in January 2024, taking a chance on a lanky, athletic shortstop with good body control. He impressed right away, earning a spot in the Dominican Summer League all-star game. He showed solid barrel control with a strong in-zone contact rate and hit .273/.407/.374 with nearly as many walks as strikeouts and 18 stolen bases.
  
  Scouting Report: Dickson is a still skinny teenager who will play the entire 2025 season as an 18-year-old. There’s a lot of projection required, as he doesn’t yet have the core and functional strength he’ll need to develop much over-the-fence power, but he does show the potential to be a well-rounded middle infielder with a contact-oriented approach. He uses the whole field and shows above-average bat-to-ball skills. He lacks bat speed currently and won’t get to doubles and home runs until he fills out more. Defensively, he has the hands, feet and athleticism to stick at both shortstop and second base.
  
  The Future: Dickson’s DSL debut was excellent, but there’s a lot of work with nutritionists and the Tigers’ sports performance staff ahead for him. He’s set to jump to the U.S. and the Florida Complex League in 2025.
