Hall elected to become a free agent Tuesday, Rich Dubroff of BaltimoreBaseball.com reports.
Hall was a second-round selection of the Orioles in the 2017 First-Year Player Draft, but he's battled durability issues throughout his professional career while struggling to climb past the lower levels of the minor leagues.

Rotowire
Hall received an invitation Friday to major-league camp.
Hall's bat is nothing more than decent, but he could stick at shortstop and has the kind of speed that would make him an exciting fantasy option if he does enough to earn regular at-bats. Those at-bats are unlikely to come this season, however, as he's yet to advance beyond Low-A.
