I can’t believe he’s 29 already.
If Jordan couldn’t make it in baseball, Tebow won’t.
He has the size to be a really good slugger, if he also has the eyesight and coordination.
He’s no Steve Gavey that’s for sure
It’s only a stunt if thy do. It’ll take two years for a guy to learn to hit big league pitching. He’ll have to do that in the minors and why would any minor league team give up a roster spot to a young kid and instead hand it to a guy who wouldn’t hit the bigs at best until he’s 31 or 32? Not a chance. I’d never let him take up space on one of my minor league rosters. He might be nice guy, but this is business.
Nothing against Tim Tebow but this has publicity stunt written all over it.
The author's got jokes - funny stuff. :)
Well, he’s got the arm to sling the ball quite a way from the outfield or rifle it across the infield. He has great hand-eye coordination. And he’s played the game, albeit only in high school, but he made all-state.
Hmm, maybe not just a publicity stunt.
Good for him.
Jackie Robinson was a college football star who became a big league baseball star.
Chuck Connors, A.K.A. “The Rifleman”, played basketball for the Boston Celtics and baseball for the Chicago Cubs.
I’m a Tebow... I’m just good enough at everything to be dangerous.
Hold my beer and look out!!
I’m praying for him now. Some struggles come to mind, like, major league slider, curveball, changeup...
That said, miracles do happen.
The day Michael Lorenzen, a Cincy Reds pitcher, this past Friday night hit a 98mph fastball out, and on the first pitch... and it wasn’t a cheapie...This was his first AB in weeks and he just lost his dad suddenly a couple weeks back. Tears flowed in the Reds’ dugout and the manager’s comments were pretty deep...
Miracles do happen...I think humble pie plays a part...was MJ humble during his baseball flirtation? Not sure. Will Tebow be? I’d wager so.
Lorenzen? Watch the tape and his interview.
I have met Tim Tebow and what this guy does — quietly, with zero publicity — for the downtrodden in many states and countries, makes the Pope look like a miser. I wish him success in whatever he desires. God knows this fine man deserves it.
