Royals' Tyler Gentry: Reassigned to minor-league camp

The Royals reassigned Gentry to minor-league camp Tuesday.

Gentry enjoyed a breakout season in the minors last season, slashing .321/.417/.555 over 331 plate appearances upon joining Double-A Northwest Arkansas. The 24-year-old outfielder struggled this spring, so it's clear there's still work to be done before he can contribute in the majors. The Royals could send him back to Double-A, but he will likely be promoted to Triple-A Omaha for the start of 2023.
