The Washington Nationals recently acquired Derek Norris in exchange for a low level pitching prospect. His acquisition only adds to the questions surrounding the Nationals catching.
With all the Andrew McCutchen and Chris Sale news swirling around the nation’s capital, the addition of Derek Norris may have slipped under some Washington Nationals fans radar.
Although Norris had his worst season as a pro in 2016, posting a batting average of just .186 in 125 games with the Padres, he is still a everyday option for the Nats.
Norris adds another layer to the difficult task of replacing Wilson Ramos behind the plate and the Nats do have a few other options.
