Maton, who had been designated for assignment from Detroit earlier this week, hit .208 in 173 games with Philadelphia and the Tigers in the past three seasons.

Last season, the 26-year-old Maton hit .173 with eight home runs and 32 RBIs in 93 games with Detroit.

Maton has played second base, shortstop and third base and has a handful of starts in left and right field and has even pitched three times.

He’s the brother of free agent right-handed pitcher Phil Maton.

The Orioles now have 39 players on their 40-man roster.
