Project or Die: Tim Tebow (1 Viewer)

The pitcher who gave up the homer John Kilichowski was a 2016 draft pick out of Vanderbilt.  He had a decent season in A ball but gave up 4 HR in 53 IP.

Hope he has enough of a career to live this one down.

 
Awful, stinks, ugly

Tebow played his final game for Scottsdale on Thursday and finished with a .194 average after a single and two walks. It was just the second time Tebow reached base more than once in a game, but both of those were in his last four games.

In 19 games, he went 12-for-62 with eight walks and 20 strikeouts. He had three doubles, which were Tebow’s only extra-base hits, as he split time between the AFL and his work as a college football broadcaster for the SEC Network.

 
He will do nothing in baseball, nothing.  I still contend that if he put his ego aside and tried to become an H back/TE he'd probably still be in the NFL.  Sorry Tim but you were never gonna be a great NFL QB but you could have been a decent H back. 

 
Tim Tebow is scheduled to arrive at Mets camp on Monday morning.
Yep, this is still happening. Tebow is expected to spend most of the spring on the minor league side of Mets camp, away from the media, but he will hold a press conference at the main facility at 11 a.m. ET on Monday. The former Heisman Trophy winner batted just .194/.296/.242 over 62 at-bats in the 2016 Arizona Fall League.
 
And arrive he did.


Tim Tebow hit nine home runs over a span of four batting practice rounds Monday during his first workout at Mets camp.
They were all to either left field or right-center, per Mark Saxon of ESPN.com. It was an impressive power show from Tebow -- who reworked his swing over the winter between college football broadcasting duties -- but it's still difficult to see this baseball experiment progressing beyond Low-A ball. Tebow, 29, batted .194/.296/.242 with 20 strikeouts over 62 at-bats in the 2016 Arizona Fall League.
 
 
How pissed off do a bunch of career guys have to be?  This guy shows up and gets front page ESPN coverage for hitting 9 BP bombs in 4 rounds?  Just a joke that's getting coverage.  

 
I'm curious where he gets assigned.  Full season low A ball in the Sally League seems the most likely.  Short-season A ball for the Brooklyn Cyclones would be less of a jump but the season doesn't start until June and would probably conflict with his broadcasting job.

I hope wherever he ends up, he picks up his teammates' dinner tabs on a regular basis.

I'm pretty sure they know he's getting coverage because he's the guy that won a heisman, a national championship, and a playoff game, not because he hit a few home runs in BP.  It's not like Sportscenter was going to be there covering the minor league right fielder who hit 16 home runs in BP if not for Tebow stealing their thunder.

 
After a half season each in the Class A Sally and Florida State leagues last season, Tebow's next step should be to the AA Binghamton Rumble Ponies.

He has a legitimate shot to better Michael Jordan's 1994 AA line of .202/.289/.266

Trivia: who was the manager of that Birmingham team?
