Orioles purchased the contract of OF L.J. Hoes from Triple-A Norfolk.

Hoes, a third-round pick back in 2008, has a .283/.358/.375 batting line over parts of five seasons in the minors. The 22-year-old doesn't have much pop in his bat, but can run a little bit and has solid plate discipline, as evidenced by his 226/331 K/BB ratio. He could sneak his way into some playing time down the stretch.

L.J. Hoes went 0-for-4 on Saturday and is hitting just .226/.262/.274 for low Single-A Delmarva.

Hoes turned heads by hitting .308/.416/.390 with 10 steals in 10 tries in the GCL after debuting last year, but the 2008 third-round pick may not have been ready for full-season ball as a 19-year-old. He has a 14/3 K/BB ratio and he's just 1-for-2 stealing bases so far.
