Jhonatan Solano (born August 12, 1985) is a Colombian former professional baseball catcher. He has played in Major League Baseball (MLB) for the Washington Nationals and Miami Marlins. He made his MLB debut in 2012.

Professional career

Washington Nationals

Solano signed with the Washington Nationals as an international free agent in 2006. He spent the next six seasons working his way up the Nationals' farm system. After spending the 2011 season with the Syracuse Chiefs, the Nationals added Solano to their 40-man roster after the season to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.

On May 29, 2012, Solano was called up to the majors by the Nationals after Wilson Ramos tore his ACL and could miss the rest of the 2012 season. On that same day, Solano got his first major league hit, a double, on his first at bat, against his brother Donovan's team, the Miami Marlins. About two weeks later, on June 12, he hit the first home run of his major league career against the Toronto Blue Jays^[1] On July 19, the Nationals placed Solano on the 15-day disabled list with an oblique injury.

The Nationals recalled Solano from the Triple-A Syracuse Chiefs on May 16, 2013, when Ramos went on the disabled list.^[2]

Solano was released by the Washington Nationals on November 18, 2014.

Miami Marlins

Solano signed a minor league contract with the Miami Marlins on December 9, 2014.^[3] He was designated for assignment on June 5, 2015.^[4] He was called back up by the Marlins on June 18 and designated for assignment again two days later.

Washington Nationals (second stint)

On December 22, 2015, Solano signed a minor league contract with the Nationals. Catching for the Triple–A Syracuse Chiefs, Solano set a new club record for number of games caught for the Syracuse team.^[5]

Solano had his contract purchased on April 7, 2018, but was assigned to the disabled list with bone chips in his elbow days later without appearing in a game.^[6] He became a free agent after the 2018 season.

St. Paul Saints

On July 3, 2019, Solano signed with the St. Paul Saints of the American Association of Independent Professional Baseball.^[7] He was released on August 10.

International career

He was a member of Team Colombia in the 2017 World Baseball Classic, along with his brother Donovan.^[8] Solano went 2 for 8 but Colombia was eliminated in the first round.^[9]

Post-playing career

In 2024, it was announced that Solano would manage the Tigres de Cartagena club of the Colombian Professional Baseball League.^[10]

His brother, Donovan Solano, plays for the San Diego Padres and also made his debut in 2012.^[8] He attended high school at Colegio Americano de Barranquilla [es] in Barranquilla, Colombia.^[8]
