Solarte (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A El Paso on Thursday, Jeff Sanders of the San Diego Union-Tribune reports.

Solar seems to be ready to test his hamstring in game action after being on the disabled list since early April. If he can get through a few rehab games without issue, he could reclaim his spot as the regular third baseman for the Padres once again. For now, though, Brett Wallace will see some extended playing time at the hot corner.
