Norris at DH would be brutal. He should try to be a part time catcher somewhere. Mets maybe?

d’Arnaud, Plawecki, Rivera. He’s not a fit, fortunately.

Exactly. Why would a team want a DH who can’t even surpass the Mendoza line.

What is Houston’s plan for a third catcher? Gattis will DH and backup McCann, but if something happens to McCann in a game, they’ll lose the DH. Could he serve as a third catcher with minimal playing time?

Gattis will split time with Beltran at DH I believe.

Gattis is a Horrible catcher compared to Norris
Beth and gattis similar type of player

Gattis way better DH than Norris

How dare those scouts that Cafardo spoke to call out Norris about his Defense lol. I mean I only watched every game he played in a Padres uniform and saw the same thing from the eye test. Butttttt, westcoastryan is going to hop on here any minute and give everyone the advanced metrics as to why Norris is so good and name call everyone who choose’s not to agree. Just wait for it, wait for it..

Why would someone try to argue that Norris was a good defensive catcher? He was near the bottom in almost every counting stat like PB, WP, and Errors, they ran all over him the past two seasons, he was 89th of 104 catchers in pitch framing. Now there are 4-5 articles in the past few months including the one by Buster Olney today saying he didn’t get along with his pitchers and teammates. I can’t seem to find anything he did well on defense.

I never understood why when a player is suppose to be out for a short period of time all the writers have to find his external replacement. Who wants Lawrie anyways???

The Cardinals don’t need norris at all. Fryer is a great back up, if yadi goes down, kelly can back up fryer. Mo needs to stop collecting bad catchers like pena and cruz. Waste of money.

Cardinals won’t sign Norris. They should probably focus on a starting pitcher. The depth isn’t as glorious as they think.. espeacilly after seeing the Ace Wainwright give up 10 runs in 1 and a half innings.
