Padres' Donovan Solano: Hits three doubles Saturday
Donovan Solano went 4-for-5 with three doubles and a run in Saturday's 8-0 win against the Giants.Solano batted out of the No. 8 hole and gave the San Diego Padres plenty of run-scoring opportunities with his trio of two-baggers, though he was knocked in just once. The veteran infielder has started at first base in three of San Diego's past four contests and appears set to see plenty of playing time at that position with Jake Cronenworth playing second base and Xander Bogaerts shifting to shortstop while Ha-Seong Kim (shoulder) continues to miss time. Solano has earned the uptick in opportunities by slashing .312/.361/.468 over 32 games since the All-Star break.

Padres' Donovan Solano: Pops fourth homer
Donovan Solano went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Rockies.Solano has played in just five games since the All-Star break, as there isn't room for him in the lineup when all of Jake Cronenworth, Luis Arraez and Xander Bogaerts are playing. Despite the limited action, Solano has gone 5-for-12 over those five games. The utility man has a .300/.355/.417 slash line with four homers, 21 RBI, 21 runs scored, nine doubles and one stolen base over 197 plate appearances this season. His playing time would likely pick up if there was an injury to one of the San Diego Padres' other infielders.

Padres' Donovan Solano: Playing time likely to dip
Donovan Solano will serve as the San Diego Padres' designated hitter and No. 2 batter in Sunday's game against Atlanta.Solano will close out the first half of the season having started in 18 of the Padres' last 19 games, but he'll likely move into more of a part-time role moving forward despite slashing .313/.343/.391 over his last 17 starts. With the Friars bringing back Xander Bogaerts from the injured list Friday, Luis Arraez is likely to see fewer starts in the infield and should instead operate as the team's primary designated hitter, which leaves no room in the lineup for Solano.

Padres' Donovan Solano: Picking up fifth straight start
Donovan Solano will start at first base and bat second in Wednesday's game against the Nationals.Solano will crack the starting nine for the fifth game in a row. The San Diego Padres are facing a left-hander (DJ Herz) for a third straight game, but San Diego could have room for both Solano and the lefty-hitting David Peralta in the regular lineup against right-handed pitching after Fernando Tatis' (quadricep) move to the injured list Monday opened up a spot. Since getting a call-up from Triple-A El Paso in early May, Solano is slashing .284/.354/.405 with three home runs and 15 RBI over 130 plate appearances.

Padres' Donovan Solano: Exiting starting nine
Donovan Solano is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mets.Solano had started each of the last eight games -- with seven coming at third base -- and went 5-for-29 with two home runs, three walks, six RBI and four runs. He should continue to have a regular spot in the lineup versus left-handed pitching, but Solano's opportunities to play against righties will likely become more limited now that Manny Machado is playing third base again after he had been relegated to designated hitter duties recently following his return from a right hip flexor strain.
