What a joke. He wasn't even drafted out of high school and hasn't played in 12 years and still thinks he can make it to the major leagues. His only shot at pro baseball is a minor league team trying to sell tickets and merchandise

I'm surprised you didn't call him Tebaw.

Time to grow up Tim. Most of us realize were not going to make it to the pros at 14

Who is more likely to sign him: the Sonoma Stompers or the Sugarland Skeeters?

Well he has 2/3 of MLB organizations coming watch him tryout so I'd say that's a little different than you struggling to make JV when you were 14.


I don't like Tebow, but if teams are giving him a chance why the hell wouldn't he give it a go.

He quit to focus on football after his jr year.. a year in which he was all state batting nearly .500.

While its highly unlikely that he will make the majors, the fact that people shite on him is ridiculous. Hes a hell of an athlete that isnt doing this for any other reason than personal desire..

So let him try and fail. Why are people so irrationally angry at this?

Jealousy at others chasing a dream. They want to tell others they can't do it because they couldn't do it themselves.

He'll make it in the minors for the same reason he didn't make it in the nfl- his popularity exceeds his talent.

No chance he'll ever make the bigs though.

Yeah, I don't understand why Tebow isn't trying independent ball. There would be a lot less backlash because people would understand that he's just trying to have fun and get his competitive juices flowing again plus he wouldn't be clogging up a roster spot that could be filled by a legitimate baseball player.
