Yankees' James Norwood: Moves to minors camp
The Yankees reassigned Norwood to minor-league camp Sunday.
Norwood was solid enough in Grapefruit League play (2.70 ERA, 14:4 K:BB, .216 batting average against in 10 innings), but his less inspiring body of work at the MLB level along with his status as a non-40-man-roster player were enough to deny him a spot in the Yankees' Opening Day bullpen. He'll likely open the campaign at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
