Gary Wayne Majewski (/məˈdʒɛski/; born February 26, 1980) is a former Major League Baseball (MLB) pitcher. He played in MLB for the Montreal Expos, Washington Nationals, Cincinnati Reds and Houston Astros.
Gary Majewski graduated in 1998 from St. Pius X High School in Houston, where he was unanimously selected for Houston Player of the Year for his achievement of maintaining a 1.64 ERA and a 14-3 record. With that, he led his team to the state championship in Class 5A TAPPS.
In the majors, Majewski had an ERA of 12.93 and 4 wins and 4 losses during the 2005 season. In his career, he pitched 242.1 innings.
Majewski was traded by the Washington Nationals to the Cincinnati Reds along with Bill Bray, Royce Clayton, and Brendan Harris for Austin Kearns, Felipe López, and Ryan Wagner. The trade caused some controversy, as the Reds front office was apparently unaware of cortisone shots that had been given to Majewski because of arm pain before the trade. It was alleged that Majeski was known to be injured by Washington GM Jim Bowden and the trade was an attempt to dump him for some value to some unsuspecting team. In his time with that Nationals Majewski was very good, with a 2.93 ERA in 2005 and a 3.58 ERA with Washington up until he was traded.
