Angels put closer Bud Norris on DL with knee inflammation

The Los Angeles Angels put reliever Bud Norris on the disabled list on Tuesday because of right knee inflammation.

Thrust into the closer's role due to injuries, Norris has excelled. He has a 2.43 ERA and 11 saves this year after not posting a single save in the first eight years of his career.

Cam Bedrosian, Andrew Bailey and Huston Street all went down to open the door for Norris, but Bedrosian came off the DL on Saturday.
