The Brewers selected Dickinson out of LSU, where he won a national championship in his first season in Baton Rouge, having spent the previous two seasons at Utah Valley. Dickinson was ranked 81st on the Consensus Big Board.

Our Jamie Cameron wrote, "A compact frame underpins a direct, adjustable swing. Dickinson controls the barrel of the bat well and has good bat speed. Dickinson is able to leverage all fields in a profile that is well-balanced. It's a good approach at the plate, with almost as many walks (13.1%) as strikeouts (13.8%) through the end of the 2025 season. Dickinson swatted 12 home runs and carried a 125 wRC+ to boot.

Cameron also says, "Dickinson shows good bat-to-ball skills and fringe-average power. Defensively, it's likely a second base profile long term. It's a solid but unspectacular defensive package. Offensively, though, this is a well-rounded hitter who does a little of everything well." 

Dickinson is unlikely to be a significant power threat at the next level, but he shows the ability to be a hit-first second baseman who brings a scrappy attitude and play-style to the field, which is a profile that the Brewers have found plenty of success with.
