Biographical Information

Outfielder Troy Gingrich played in the Montreal Expos organization from 2000 to 2003, splitting each of his last three seasons between A and AA. Overall, Gingrich hit .231/.340/.306 in 369 games. He retired during spring training in 2004 and immediately took up coaching in the Expos minor league system. He remained with the organization when they became the Washington Nationals in 2005.

Gingrich was a hitting coach for the Vermont Expos (2004), Potomac Nationals (2005-2007), Harrisburg Senators (2008-2011), and Syracuse Chiefs (2012-2013). After the 2013 season, he served as a hitting coach for the Mesa Solar Sox in the Arizona Fall League. The Nationals promoted Gingrich to Minor League Hitting Coordinator in 2014 and he remained in that position through 2021. Following that season, the Nationals beefed up their minor league development team and Gingrich worked as the Lower Level Hitting Coordinator in 2022-2023. Still not satisfied with their player development system, the Nationals released a number of coordinators and coaches after the 2023 season, including Gingrich.

In 2024, Gingrich left affiliated ball for one year to coach hitters for the Bristol State Liners in the summer collegiate Appalachian League. The Cincinnati Reds hired him in 2025 as a hitting coach for the Dayton Dragons where he remained in 2026.
