He's played professionally for years. Yes there is an obvious difference in the quality of play but I would not compare Hector to another fresh faced 22 year old rookie. He was expected to come in and immediately hit like any other veteran.

Per Bowman.. HO PAID admin leave has been extended per investigation... Dragging this crap out...

It's likely that his suspension will be longer than his paid leave has been. If he wants, he can repay the amount he's been paid during his administrative leave and have the leave counted towards his suspension. It would be insanely stupid for him to add a suspension on top of the paid leave. That would torpedo any chance he has left of catching on with a major league team.

Honestly, I wouldn't cut him. I would burry him in AA when he is finished serving his suspension. I would not give him the luxury of making another team on my dime.. he can flounder down in the minors for a few years or build enough trade value to dump off on someone (very unlikely)....

I'm thinking they're probably getting fairly close to decision here. The fact that they didn't come out and officially announce a set extension like they did last time shows that they're probably fairly close to a resolution and don't think they'll need another 2 weeks. If a decision could come any time now there's no reason to announce another extension.
