Walter Val Majewski (pronounced my-ESS-skee) (born June 19, 1981 in New Brunswick, New Jersey) is an American baseball player who is currently a free agent. He was the Orioles' third-round draft pick in 2002 and was named the Orioles' Minor League Player of the Year in 2004. Majewski grew up in Freehold Township, where he went to Freehold Township High School.[1] He later attended Rutgers University.

After a successful stint with the Class AA Bowie Baysox, he made his debut for the Orioles on August 20, 2004, but suffered a torn labrum in his left shoulder and was limited to nine games that season. The club originally thought that the shoulder would not require surgery, but after it failed to heal on its own, Majewski had surgery on it and was sidelined for the 2005 season. In 2006, played for the Ottawa Lynx. In 2007, Majewski split the season between Double-A Bowie and Triple-A Norfolk, but was released by the Orioles in march 2008. On April 23, 2008, Majewski signed with the Newark Bears of the Atlantic League.
