Hoes was traded to the Orioles in exchange for cash considerations on Wednesday, Eduardo Encina of the Baltimore Sun reports.
Hoes was DFA'd by the Astros in November, despite a fairly strong year at Triple-A Fresno, where he hit .295/.383/.400 with 26 seals. The 25-year-old has appeared in 112 major league games, and while he's yet to prove he's an everyday outfielder, he's been effective enough to warrant spot starts off the bench.
