Orlando posted a wRC+ of 2 in 93 plate appearances for the Royals last season, hitting .167/.194/.200. The 33-year-old's career .263/.289/.384 mark puts him firmly in organizational depth territory. It would be a surprise to see him make more than a handful of major-league at-bats this season.

This move frees up roster space for prospects in need of protection from the upcoming Rule 5 draft. Orlando appeared in just 25 games for the Royals in 2018, hitting .167/.194/.200. The 33-year-old figures to serve as organizational depth in 2019 wherever he winds up.
