Solano was reassigned to the Nationals' minor-league camp Wednesday, MLB.com's Jamal Collier reports.

Solano's chances of cracking the Nationals' Opening Day roster improved following the release of Derek Norris earlier in the spring, but since he's still behind Matt Wieters and Jose Lobaton in the pecking order at catcher, he probably needed an injury to either of those two players in order to have a more realistic shot. The 31-year-old is expected to head to Triple-A Syracuse to begin the 2017 campaign.
