Cast off 40-man roster
Vielma (knee) was designated for assignment by the Orioles on Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
The move clears room for Dillon Tate, who was added to the 40-man roster in a corresponding move. Vielma appeared in just 18 games between Triple-A Norfolk and the big club in 2018 due to a fractured kneecap. He struggled at both stops, hitting just .143 for the Orioles and .184 for the Tides. The 24-year-old will now be subjected to waivers.

Erik Siegrist sifts through the available talent in the American League and doesn't think Wilson Ramos' power surge can be ignored in shallow leagues.
2017 Fantasy Outlook
Vielma reached the Double-A level as a 22-year-old in 2016, batting .271/.345/.318 in 90 games with Chattanooga. He's a switch-hitter with some speed and the ability to play all around the infield, but Vielma packs no notable power -- he has two career home runs in five minor league seasons -- and his hit tool is nothing to write home about.
