The Orioles designated Machin for assignment Wednesday.
Machin saw a bit of playing time at third base in the Orioles' initial games without Jordan Westburg (ankle), going 1-for-11 with a home run following his promotion from Triple-A Norfolk last Friday. However, Machin didn't make a strong enough impression to earn a long-term stay in Baltimore, and he'll be replaced on the 40-man roster and 26-man active roster by infielder Emmanuel Rivera, who was called up from Norfolk.
