Derek Norris reported to spring training on Tuesday, and the questions followed him.

Norris, the veteran catcher the Detroit Tigers signed to a minor-league deal this winter, was suspended last season for violating Major League Baseball’s domestic violence policy after his ex-fiancee alleged physical and emotional abuse in a social media post that has since been deleted.
