Denorfia really improved his offense so that he makes consistent contact, with decent power (a little more than Dickerson) and great pitch selection so he had a great OBP. As a fielder, he was intelligent and versatile, with a so-so arm. Dickerson is a great fielder, with great range and a good arm.
I see Denorfia as a solid #4 OFer on a good team and a starter on a poor team.
I see Dickerson as a defensive late innings #5 OFer. He just doesn't have the ability to make consistent contact which hurts his offensive qualities (decent power, ability to take a walk, speed).
