Since being acquired from the Tigers on July 30, Norris has submitted a 6.91 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 14:13 K:BB in 14.1 innings.

Dealing with cut on throwing hand Norris is dealing with a cut on his throwing hand following Friday's loss to the Cardinals, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Impact Norris apparently dealt with a similar issue earlier in the season but hasn't been forced to spend time on the injured list. The Brewers will likely monitor his status in the near future but is currently considered day-to-day.

Picks up first win with Brewers Norris struck out two batters in a clean sixth inning and picked up his first win as a Brewer on Wednesday.

Impact The opposing Giants tied Wednesday's game in the fifth inning, but Norris kept them off the scoreboard in the next frame, and he wound up with the win when the Brewers pushed a run across in the top of the seventh. Norris allowed seven earned runs over five innings in his first five appearances after being acquired by Milwaukee at the trade deadline, but he's given up zero runs -- and just one hit -- in six innings over his last five trips to the mound.

Brought in by Brewers Norris was traded from the Tigers to the Brewers in exchange for Reese Olson on Friday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact The 28-year-old lefty has struggled to a 5.89 ERA this season, though his underlying numbers suggest he should be more useful than that down the stretch. He's combined an above-average 25.5 percent strikeout rate and 48.5 percent groundball rate with a slightly sub-par 9.6 percent walk rate, leading to a 3.78 FIP and 3.54 xFIP. He picked up his first career save Tuesday, though he's unlikely to get many more in Milwaukee with Josh Hader as his new teammate.

Earns first save Norris pitched a clean 11th inning to record the save in Tuesday's extra-inning win over the Twins.

Impact The Tigers rallied from down 5-1 to tie the game in the ninth inning, then took the lead in the 11th. With Michael Fulmer and Jose Cisnero having pitched earlier in the game, and Gregory Soto likely unavailable after logging 1.2 innings Monday, Detroit turned to Norris for the save. The lefty delivered a clean inning for his first career MLB save. Fulmer, Cisnero and Soto should see most of the save opportunities moving forward, which will push Norris back to more of a middle relief role.

Earns first win of 2021 Norris (1-3) struck out two in two perfect innings to earn the win in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader against the Twins.

Impact Norris entered Saturday's matinee after Jose Urena exited with groin tightness, and he held the Twins without a baserunner in the fourth and fifth innings. The left-hander had posted a 10.61 ERA and 2.46 WHIP in 9.1 innings across his 11 appearances leading up to the All-Star break, but he was effective in his first appearance of the second half and earned his first win of the 2021 campaign.
