JUPITER, Fla. • When will top Cardinals' hitting prospect Oscar Taveras make his debut in a 2014 spring-training game?

The answer: We may know more on Wednesday.

Cardinals GM John Mozeliak told STLtoday.com that he plans to meet with Taveras and the team's trainers to discuss the next — and best — course of action for the rookie outfielder. Taveras has been reluctant to test his surgically-repaired right ankle in a game.

Taveras was cleared to participate in all baseball activities, but informed manager Mike Matheny that he isn't quite ready to cut loose and play because of ongoing concern over the ankle.

“I would imagine what's going to happen now over the next few days, is they're going to try and push him to give him more confidence in what he's capable of doing,” Mozeliak said. “I know he desperately wants to get into games.

“I spoke to his agent last night about where (Oscar) is, because he wanted me to know that Oscar wants to play. And I said 'Just know that there might be a little disconnect here in what I'm hearing and what you're telling me.' "
