Hill (forearm) is set to face live hitters Friday or Saturday, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.
Hill was able to toss another side session Monday without any issues, so the next step in his rehab will be to face live batters. He was placed on the injured list June 20 with a left forearm strain and continues to target a mid-September return. The Dodgers are expected to give Hill an opportunity to reclaim a starting role once he's activated, with the veteran lefty and Julio Urias likely vying for the final spot in Los Angeles' four-man rotation in the postseason.
