The San Diego Padres signed Solís as an international free agent in February 2005. Solís spent eight professional seasons in the Padres minor league organization, as well as playing 21 games in the Mexican League in 2010.[1]

In 2012, Solís played for the Double-A San Antonio Missions, hitting .283 with 6 home runs in 87 games. He appeared in the All-Star Futures Game as a replacement for Yasmani Grandal.[2] He was voted the top catcher, along with Lars Davis, in the Texas League.[3]

The Padres promoted Solís to the major leagues on September 4, 2012.[4] He appeared in 5 games and had 4 at-bats, staying on the roster through the end of the season.

On October 25, 2012, the Pittsburgh Pirates claimed Solís off waivers and then outrighted him to the minors.[5]

Tampa Bay Rays

Solis signed a minor league deal with the Tampa Bay Rays on November 21, 2013. His contract was selected from the Triple-A Durham Bulls on May 27, 2014.[6]

Los Angeles Dodgers

On December 19, 2014, Solís signed a minor league contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers that included an invitation to Major League spring training.[7] Solís left the team on February 21, 2015, due to a "contractual issue."[8] On March 16, he rejoined the Dodgers but was assigned to minor league camp.
