On Saturday night, Daniel Norris took the loss in the Cubs' bullpen game 6-2 defeat to the Dodgers.
Fantasy Impact
Norris pitched 1 1/3 innings with three walks, three earned runs, and only one strikeout. The 29-year-old relief pitcher has nine strikeouts in 7 1/3 innings with an unsightly 8.59 ERA and 1.23 WHIP.
The Cubs are signing Daniel Norris, according to Jesse Rogers.
Fantasy Impact
Norris had a dreadful 2021 season, pitching to a 6.16 ERA and 1.49 WHIP. He struggled mightily with his command (12.1% walk rate) and never got into a groove with the Tigers. But he was much better against lefties last year (.289 wOBA) so he may find himself as a pure lefty specialist if he can rein in his control. Regardless, he's not going to make much of an impact for fantasy purposes with Chicago so fantasy managers can ignore him on draft day.
The Brewers have reportedly acquired LHP Daniel Norris from the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact
Norris is expected to serve as a lefty specialist for Milwaukee. The southpaw has an ugly 5.89 ERA for the season, though he has predictably pitched better against lefties.
Detroit Tigers left-hander Daniel Norris tossed a scoreless 11th inning to preserve a 6-5 win over the Twins on Tuesday. He did not allow a base runner in the frame and needed just six pitches to put the Twins away.
Fantasy Impact
Norris was credited with the save, the first of his career. The veteran lefty now has a 1-3 record, 5.89 ERA, 1.45 WHIP, and 40 strikeouts over 36 2/3 innings of work.
Daniel Norris will have enough left in the tank after pitching emergency innings in Friday's game against the Indians to "follow" Michael Fulmer's start on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Norris was called on to relieve Ivan Nova with no warmup on Friday after Nova gave up eight runs through four innings to the Indians, and Norris pitched 1 and 2/3 innings without allowing a run. Norris now has a 3.38 ERA and 1.50 WHIP through 5+ innings.
