Twins' Oliver Ortega: DFA'd by Twins

Ortega was designated for assignment by the Twins on Tuesday.

The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for A.J. Alexy, who was acquired via trade. Ortega was just picked up off waivers a few days ago and now could be on the move again. He holds a 3.95 ERA over 35 relief appearances in the majors covering the last two seasons.
