Oscar Taveras hit a grand slam off Jacob Turner in the Cardinals' 8-2 defeat of the Marlins on Thursday.
It was Taveras' lone hit in four at-bats, but we won't hold it against him. The push to put Taveras on the Cardinals' Opening Day roster has already started. However, we don't see how it would work out unless someone ahead of him gets hurt. Sure, Carlos Beltran could use a day off every week, but Matt Holliday doesn't, and since both Jon Jay and Taveras are left-handed hitters, there's no easy way for them to share center.
