PROVE THEM ALL WRONG
God will bless him in ways he doesn’t suspect!...................
He would have been a great quarterback to if there wasn’t a lynch mob going after him all the time.
Still just double A. Put him in triple A and if he does well there then maybe bring him up after Labor Day.
The Mets are horrible so nothing to lose by calling him up late in the season to gin up some interest.
His progress is almost miraculous, given his lack of baseball background.
He’s been splitting LF with 27-year old Kevin Taylor, a converted 2Bman.
Taylor: 235 AB, .281 BA, 2 HR, 25 RBI
Tebow: 203 AB, .256 BA, 5 HR, 27 RBI
Tebow is weak defensively and has struck out 85 times in 203 ABs, 20+ more SOs than anyone else on the team. That’s actually an improving rate.
Tebow’s pretty good numbers are mostly due to a hot streak the last month. It takes a real ballplayer to even have a hot streak that long.
Good for him. I have never understood the hate for him. I was never a fan of his, but I got the distinct impression that much of the hate was from people offended by his religiosity. And the others who hated him did because they thought he wasn’t genuine.
I hope he does well in whatever he does.
I saw him on an epoisode of Fixer Upper last week. The guy has thighs as big as tree trucks...very impressive...
I hope he does well in MLB
I have nothing against Tebow. I LIKE and admire the man. And if playing pro ball makes him happy more power to him. But...the odds of him making it to the big leagues are very slim. Not nonexistent, just pretty slim.
