Ortiz cleared waivers and was outrighted to Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday.
The 24-year-old was designated for assignment by Philadelphia on Tuesday but will remain in the organization after passing through waivers unclaimed. Ortiz has yet to make his big-league debut and had a .239/.321/.419 slash line and 17 home runs in 118 games at Double-A Reading last season.
