Solarte is out of the lineup Thursday against the Phillies.

Analysis:

Solarte will give way to Cory Spangenberg after starting seven games in a row. Acquired from the Yankees in the Chase Headley deal, Solarte has been better than anticipated for the Padres despite the considerable downgrade in his home park. He's slashing .274/.352/.371 over 186 at-bats with San Diego, driving in 17 runs and scoring 27.
