Orioles' Craig Gentry: In race for reserve role

Gentry's defensive prowess give his a boost in the race for an Opening Day reserve role, SB Nation reports.

Analysis:

The 33-year-old outfielder has bounced between the majors and minors for the past couple of seasons. Gentry is an above-average defender, which is something the Orioles have a need for. If Gentry makes the team, he will be relegated to a platoon role -- most likely in left field -- but can also fill in for Adam Jones in center when needed.
