Analysis:

Back tightness has delayed Kipnis for close to a week now, but the Indians are hoping to get him into a minor league game Wednesday. Kipnis entered camp with limitations after undergoing surgery on his finger in December, and went just 4-for-18 (.222 average) before being forced out of action.
