Also could of been promoted to make room for some of the new draft picks by the Mets.

I'm sure the other players are growing tired of this act

His promotion is valid

If his name was not Tim Tebow, no it wouldn't be. Striking out in 1/3 of your at bats in low A does not get you promoted generally unless you're hitting homeruns every 12 at bats, which Tebow is not

After 10 years off he's been more impressive than expected. He started terribly and he's been reasonable since then. Regardless he's filling stadiums so he's helping business and working hard.

I know he gets more attention than anyone else but that is the media trying to make money. I have all the time in the world for a guy with his work ethic regardless of their profession.

Port St Lucie is probably going to sell out the rest of their season with Tebow on the roster.

I saw where Darren Rovell said the Mets weren't making any money off of him playing for the fireflies because they didn't own that team. Now they can.

Agreed

There's a lot of context to take into consideration for Tim tebow.

I think it's justifiable to promote him.
