Craig Gentry

No matter what the market did this offseason, Gentry was likely looking at another minor league deal. He’s 34 and the definition of a role player, a defensive standout and speedy pinch-runner but limited hitter. It’s somewhat surprising he re-signed with the Orioles since he is a right-handed-hitting outfielder and the club already has several of those on the roster bubble: Anthony Santander, Joey Rickard and Austin Hays. But manager Buck Showalter loves what Gentry brings to a team, and the Norfolk shuttle is always revving. According to USA Today, Gentry will make $900,000 if he is on the Opening Day roster. I don’t necessarily see that happening, but I wouldn’t bet against Gentry being a member of the Orioles at some point in 2018.
