Solano's contract was selected from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
Solano had a good performance with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season, where he hit .319/.349/.436 over 131 games. Solano will provide depth around the infield for the Yankees and could even steal a few starts with the potentially season-ending injury to Starlin Castro. Solano has spent time at second and third base, as well as shortstop over the course of his career in the majors.
