"Gentry was released by the Royals at the end of Spring Training, and now moves onto a new team for the first time in his pro career."
"A third-round pick for Kansas City in the 2020 draft, Gentry made it to the majors for a three-game cup of coffee with the Royals in August 2024."
"Gentry's stock dimmed in the organization after he hit an uninspiring .206/.284/.371 over 332 plate appearances with Triple-A Omaha in 2025."
"The Gentry signing restores a bit of outfield depth to Toledo's ranks after Wenceel Perez was called up to the Tigers as Meadows' replacement."
Tyler Gentry signed a minor league contract with the Tigers after being released by the Royals. He was a third-round pick in the 2020 draft and briefly played in the majors in August 2024. Gentry struggled in Triple-A Omaha in 2025, hitting .206/.284/.371 over 332 plate appearances. His performance declined compared to previous years. The signing provides the Tigers with outfield depth following Parker Meadows' injury, and Gentry has a minor league option remaining for potential roster flexibility.
