by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(5/9/13) Athletics catcher Derek Norris had a rough time Thursday at Cleveland, going 0 for 4 with three strikeouts. Norris has struck out at least once in five straight games and has totaled nine strikeouts in that span.
Norris is batting .188 (6 for 32) with one double and one RBI in his last nine games. Norris has started seven of the last nine games at catcher because injuries have forced John Jaso to play a bigger role at DH.

| When the Athletics made Derek Norris part of the haul they received from the Nationals in exchange for Gio Gonzalez last offseason, it was not clear whether they were getting a catcher who could hit at the big league level. In his final season in the Nationals' farm system, Norris hit just .210 at Double-A Harrisburg, as strikeouts and popups got the best of him. He didn't stop hitting for power, though, and after hitting .271 with nine homers at Triple-A Sacramento, the A's called Norris up in June and gave him the bulk of the catching duties. Once again, Norris was swinging for the fences, and his approach did net him seven homers in 209 at-bats, but it also saddled him with a .201 batting average. If Norris can learn to hit for both power and average in the majors, like he had at times during his minor league career, he could be a valuable catcher for all Fantasy formats. For now, though, Norris will serve as John Jaso's backup, and he can be ignored outside of AL-only leagues. (Updated 1/22/13) |
