Donovan Solano Stats

The Cincinnati Reds activated second baseman Donovan Solano (hamstring) from the 60-day injured list on Tuesday. Left-handed pitcher Nick Lodolo (back) was transferred to the 60-day injured list in a corresponding move. Solano has been sidelined all season with a left hamstring injury. He signed with the Reds this past offseason after spending three years with the San Francisco Giants. He will be a reserve infielder for the Reds this year. The 34-year-old has slashed .277/.325/.372 over 606 career MLB games.

Cincinnati Reds infielder Donovan Solano (hamstring) left Tuesday's Cactus League game against the Texas Rangers with a left hamstring injury. Solano injured himself running the bases and walked off the field with a trainer. We don't know the seriousness of the injury just yet, but with Opening Day just over a week away, there's a good chance that he may not be ready for the start of the season. The 34-year-old could have a part-time role on the left side of Cincinnati's infield when healthy, but he won't be much of an asset in mixed leagues. Solano had a nice .280/.344/.404 slash line, a career-high seven home runs, 31 RBI and 35 runs scored in 344 plate appearances over 101 games for the San Francisco Giants in 2021.

The Cincinnati Reds signed free-agent infielder Donovan Solano to a one-year, $4.5 million deal on Wednesday. The Reds are set at the keystone with Jonathan India, who won National League Rookie of the Year last season, so Solano will likely serve in mostly a utility infield role in his new home. Cincinnati traded third baseman Eugenio Suarez to the Seattle Mariners earlier in the week. Kyle Farmer, Jose Barrero and Mike Moustakas will be competing for jobs on the left side of the infield alongside Solano. The 34-year-old infielder has had some success against left-handers in the last three seasons with the San Francisco Giants, so Solano could at least be on the strong side of a platoon at either short or third in 2022. Solano hit .308/.354/.435 with 14 homers and 83 RBI in 236 games for the Gigantes the last three seasons.
