The St. Louis Cardinals are set to announce on Monday the signing of right-handed reliever Bud Norris who at one time put fear in the hearts of Cardinals hitters. I am pleased by this announcement as I had predicted it just three days ago. Read my prediction here.
The official announcement will come after Norris passes his physical. That said, Norris came out of the gate last season with the Angels and performed well from the pen. Through July 23 of the 2017 season, Norris had a very respectable 2.23 ERA. This was before a knee inflammation sidelined his playing time.
