Hoes is currently an unsigned free agent, so the suspension will stick if a team decides to pick him up. He hasn't been in the majors since 2015, when he slashed .267/.313/.267 in eight games with the Astros. The 25-year-old spent all of last season with Triple-A Norfolk, and with his slash line of .242/.318/.331 in 396 at-bats coupled with his suspension, it may take time before he is picked up by anyone.

A slew of former major leagues were sent to Triple-A by the Orioles on Friday where they will all add organizational depth but offer no fantasy value.

Nobody claimed any Hoes on waivers, returning him back to the Orioles Triple-A affiliate. Hoes has managed 308 MLB at-bats in four seasons but has only accumulated a .237 batting-average. Hoes will likely be back-and-forth between the Majors and Minors when outfield depth is needed.

The move is a corresponding one coming from the acquisition of Efren Navarro from the Angels. Hoes, 25, was acquired by Baltimore from Houston back in November and will now have to be shipped elsewhere or windup heading to the minor leagues for the O's. Either way Hoes can be ignored come draft time.
