Daniel Norris appears to be the odd man out of the Tigers? rotation.
The question then, is what to do with him?

March 15 in Tigers and mlb history:

1901: Star third baseman Jimmy Collins jumps from the National League to the American League. The 28-year-old Collins leaves the Boston Beaneaters to sign a guaranteed $4,000 contract with the Boston Americans.

1928: Paul Carey born in Mount Pleasant, Michigan. Tigers broadcaster alongside Ernie Harwell from 1973-91.

1934: Golf legend Walter Hagen puts on a Detroit Tigers uniform & has some Spring Training fun with catcher Mickey Cochrane.

1944: Due to World War II travel restrictions, the Boston Red Sox open training camp at Tufts University in Medford, Massachusetts.

1945: With World War II travel restrictions still in effect, the Brooklyn Dodgers open spring training at Bear Mountain, New York, with 15 players in camp. Seven teams - the St. Louis Browns, Detroit Tigers, Cincinnati Reds, Cleveland Indians, Chicago Cubs, Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago White Sox - are training in Indiana, the most of any state.

1971 - Bernice Gera, a 39-year-old New York, NY housewife, files a lawsuit against organized baseball, claiming violation of her civil rights. Mrs. Gera had completed an umpire school and signed a contract to work in the New York-Penn League, only to see the deal be voided six days later with no explanation. Gera will eventually umpire one game before quitting.

1975: The Los Angeles Dodgers sign future Hall of Fame pitcher Juan Marichal. A former San Francisco Giants All-Star, Marichal will make only two appearances with the Dodgers before retiring for good.

1978: The Oakland Athletics trade star pitcher Vida Blue to the San Francisco Giants for seven players and nearly $400,000 in cash. In exchange for Blue, Oakland acquires catcher Gary Alexander, infielder Mario Guerrero, outfielder Gary Thomasson, and pitchers Dave Heaverlo, Phil Huffman, John Henry Johnson and Alan Wirth. Blue will win 18 games for the Giants this season.

1980: The Detroit Tigers traded Jerry Manuel to the Montreal Expos for Duffy Dyer.

1983: The Detroit Tigers signed Julio Gonzalez as a free agent.

1991: The Detroit Tigers signed Rick Renteria as a free agent.
1991: The Detroit Tigers released Clay Parker.

1991: The Kansas City Royals release Bo Jackson, who injured his hip playing football for the Los Angeles Raiders. In April, Jackson will sign a contract with the Chicago White Sox.

1994: The Detroit Tigers released Tom Bolton.
1994: The Detroit Tigers released Mark Leiter.

2005: The Detroit Tigers released Alex Sanchez.

2010: The Major League Baseball Players Association circulates an expanded list of "dangerous contaminated supplements", which now contains 104 products. These nutritional supplements are legal but potentially contaminated, and could cause false positives under Major League Baseball's policy on performance-enhancing drugs.

2011: The Detroit Tigers signed Harold Castro as an amateur free agent.

2011: Commissioner Bud Selig forms a 12-person committee to study the origins of baseball, with newly-appointed official historian John Thorn as its chair. The issue has been rekindled with the publication this week of Thorn's book, Baseball in the Garden of Eden, which casts doubt on the role of Alexander Cartwright in laying down the fundamental principles of the game. Ironically, Cartwright was promoted as the "real" founder of the game to counteract the unfounded legend that Abner Doubleday had laid down the first baseball diamond in Cooperstown, NY in 1839. Thorn argues that the game is in fact much older than once thought, with traces found in 18th century records.
