Faces live hitters Friday Fiers (elbow) threw a 25-pitch live batting practice session Friday, the team's official site reports.
Impact The veteran right-hander continues to inch closer to a possible late-season return, with Friday's bump in activity level another encouraging sign after Fiers threw a 20-pitch bullpen session a week earlier. Manager Bob Melvin labeled Friday's developments "a step in the right direction", and it remains to be seen if the team will deem Fiers ready to test himself in a minor-league setting next.

Encouraging bullpen Friday Fiers (elbow) threw a 20-pitch, all-fastballs bullpen session Friday, the Associated Press reports.
Impact It marked the right-hander's first time throwing off a mound in the recovery process. The fact Fiers apparently was able to tolerate a solid workload right out of the gate would seem to bode well for his chances of a return to action before the end of the regular season, but the coming weeks will naturally serve as the final determinant.

Bullpen session on tap Fiers (elbow) is slated to throw a bullpen session Friday, the Associated Press reports.
Impact The session will mark Fiers' first time throwing off a mound during his lengthy rehabilitation process. The veteran right-hander has been ramping up his workload for weeks and has apparently tolerated the process well. If that continues to hold true with Friday's activity, Fiers could potentially start a rehab assignment in the earlier part of September with an eye on availability in some form prior to the postseason.
