Fort Myers, Fla. — It’s probably too soon to say Daniel Norris is fixed. But it seems clear he is mending, rapidly.

“It’s unreal,” Norris said, after pitching three scoreless innings Tuesday in the Tigers' 4-3 Grapefruit League win over the Red Sox. “It’s coming back, man. Everything we’ve been working on is starting to become more natural. I’m starting to throw a baseball the way a person is supposed to.”

It was no split-squad team, either. Norris, who struggled in his early starts, had to go through essentially the defending champs’ regular lineup.
