A Shocking Number Of MLB Teams Are Interested In Tim Tebow
Tebow hasn’t played baseball since high school, but his athleticism and size are enough to at least get a look from the majority of MLB clubs. He has been training as a baseball player for several months in Arizona.
“Tim’s athletic ability, his work ethic, his leadership and his competitiveness were evident in football and will show in baseball”.
Tebow was an all-state baseball player in Florida that year and hit.494 as a junior, helping Nease High School reach the final four of the Florida state playoffs. “I absolutley believe in his ability to play in the bigs. He knows the challenges that lie ahead of him given his age and experience, but he is determined to achieve his goal of playing in the Major Leagues”.
Chad Moeller, a former Dodgers and USC catcher, said in a statement that he has trained Tebow. As an agent, I have a genuine respect for how hard it is to succeed at the game of baseball and a true admiration for those who possess the talent to play it at the major-league level. How would he handle the minor leagues? Tebow will go through a fairly typical routine, per Joel Sherman of the New York Post.
Tebow was selected by the Denver Broncos in the first round (25th overall) of the 2010 NFL Draft.
Now, do you think anyone will actually sign him after his workout is over?
