Kiermaier (hips) faced live pitching for the second consecutive day Tuesday in pregame batting practice, Adam Berry of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Kiermaier continues to work through the hip tightness that has befallen him early in spring training, with Tuesday marking his second straight day of batting practice. That would seem to indicate the veteran outfielder is getting close to his Grapefruit League debut, but the 30-year-old did not make an appearance during Wednesday's win over the Pirates.
