The Daniel Norris hype train is underway

he fanned 9.2 batters per nine, walked just 2.9 per nine and carried an ERA of 3.38. He also picked up the pace considerably in 56.1 second-half innings, posting a 3.04 ERA with increases in ground-ball rate (up to 40.2 percent) and in home run rate (1.3 for the season, but just 1.1 after the break).


Time to break out

Oh no. I am actually serious about that one. He ain't going nowhere.

Just the first article I saw of him as "breakout players."

I think he should be on more.

11.7 K/9 over final 5 starts with a 2.73 ERA.

I don't think I've ever mentioned Norris to be OTB this offseason. He will remain with Team MWG.

a $20M salary probably keeps Sanchez in over Boyd. Norris definitely has a spot, unless something drastic happens in ST.

Mike Pelfrey, too. 4 guys for 2 spots

He's only committed to JV, Zimmerman, and Fulmer as of now.

There's no doubt some baseball people are, well, sometimes stupid. A lot of cases.

I could see Anibal or Pelfrey in the rotation because they're "experienced" over more talented, more productive pitchers like Norris.

But I think equally they'll think an all right-handed rotation would be a detriment.

I think Norris starts the year in the rotation. Pelfrey bullpen, and Boyd in Toledo

Were there a bunch of people really trying to get Daniel Norris from you?

Had to beat them away with a stick, Roll

Gotta rattle the cages every now and then. Too fun of a league to go quiet for an entire weekend.

Gotta create some convo, trade talk ... it's almost draft season.

I like Norris

Just thought it was funny ausmus wouldn't commit to either on the young guys over turds like Sanchez and pelfrey. Norris and Boyd were very good post ASB

Still waiting on one more person to vote...

Not sure how long we should give this person before moving on. If he doesn't vote, the motion passes with 68.4% of the vote.

ETA: Once that vote has closed, we will have a vote to increase the major league roster by one slot.
