Gentry refused his assignment to the minors and elected to become a free agent Wednesday, Pedro Moura of the LA Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gentry was designated for assignment after being activated from the DL (back) on July 30. The 32-year-old will become a free agent after exercising his right to refuse the assignment. He has hit just .147/.237/.176 in the majors this season over the course of 39 plate appearances, but is a career .261 hitter during his eight years in the MLB. Gentry could get a chance with a team looking for some outfield depth.
