Nationals Deal With Bud Norris Falls Through rotoballer.com Thu 4/11/19 1:06 PM

The Washington Nationals deal with free-agent relief pitcher Bud Norris (forearm) has fallen through. The Nats felt he was still four to five weeks away from being ready to pitch in the majors. Norris had a 3.59 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 67 strikeouts in 57 2/3 innings while also recording 28 saves for the Cardinals in 2018. The veteran relief arm must get healthy before another team gives him a chance, so he's well off the fantasy radar at this time.
