Hoes was suspended 50 games for testing positive for a drug of abuse for the second time, Eduardo Encina of the Baltimore Sun reports.

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.
