Gentry indicated Thursday that he plans to retire, Yahoo Sports reports. Gentry turned in a trio of multi-hit games for the Rockies' Triple-A affiliate in Albuquerque before landing on the 7-day injured list a couple weeks ago due to an undisclosed issue. The prospect of rehabbing the injury in the minors may not have been appealing to a player with more than seven years of big-league service time, so the 35-year-old called it a career. Gentry acted mostly as a reserve outfielder while appearing in 602 career games between the Rangers, Athletics, Angels and Orioles. He'll retire with a .262/.333/.339 slash line over 1,402 major-league plate appearances.

Gentry was cut loose by the Orioles on Wednesday. Gentry was released by the organization after being designated for assignment last week. He will now be free to sign with any organization of his choosing. Gentry hit .269 with a .667 OPS across 68 games for the Orioles this year.

Gentry was designated for assignment by Baltimore on Friday, Brittany Ghiroli of MLB.com reports. Gentry was cast off the 40-man roster in order to open up another spot for one of the Orioles' prospects in September. In 68 games with Baltimore this year, Gentry slashed .269/.321/.346 with 11 RBI and 12 stolen bases. He will now be subject to the waiver wire.

Gentry was 3-for-5 with home run, two runs scored and three RBI in Tuesday's win over Toronto. Gentry hit his first home run of the season as the Orioles pounded Blue Jays starter Thomas Pannone for seven runs. The veteran outfielder has a .263/.313/.342 slash line with 12 stolen bases in 152 at-bats this season.
