Norris is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
He will sit for the third time in the last six games, as Christian Bethancourt seems to be gaining a slightly larger share of the catching duties. Austin Hedges, 23, who is the best defensive catcher in the organization, is crushing Triple-A pitching at the moment (.348/.384/.652), so assuming he joins the roster in September, Norris could be squeezed even further in a few weeks.

Norris is out of the lineup for Saturday's tilt with Philadelphia.
EDGE Analysis
Norris will be held out of the lineup for the second time in the Padres last two games as Christian Betancourt gets the start behind the dish and bats seventh. Norris has gone 5-for-56 (.089) in 17 games since the All-Star break which is a likely reason the Padres want to get a fresh bat in the lineup.
