The Mets are gonna give Tebow a shot. It's a good gamble cause all he does is win.

Yeah. He's never seen a real fastball, curve or change up in his life.

Jordan would not have been a star in MLB. He wasn't even good enough to get a fringe job as a reserve for publicity's sake.
He wouldn't not have been a stolen base king, as he was too tall and too heavy to be a premier MLB base stealer.
He finally did the smart thing and returned to the sport where he had real talent.
C'mon Druff. I agree with you on Jordan but Tebow has a better athletic build to succeed at baseball than Jordan who was too lanky. Tebow looked pretty good swinging that bat and he has exceptional power which is why the Mets signed him.
I could see him being a mid season call up by the middle of next season and being a pretty good power hitter. And even if he fails what is the downside in the Mets giving him a shot.
My favorite part of this Tebow-baseball story is reading the scouts review of his showcase, calling him generally an average defender in the outfield but with a weak arm.
FORMER 1ST RD PICK IN THE NFL AT QB.....WEAK ARM
you cant make that shit up
When the Indians bring up some pitcher who has a 1.25 era in the minors or a guy hitting .330, and I look at his bio and see he's 29, I basically write him off. Most of the time those guys don't make it, and even the ones who do, by the time they adjust to the majors, they're on the decline. To think some guy who hasn't even been excelling in the minors is going to do it is silly.
Tebow is like one of old baseball promotions where they signed a midget to draw walks. Simply a sideshow to sell a few tickets and create a buzz.

Motion to move this to the TEBOW IS GOD thread.

Hasn't this meathead heard of Auusie rules Footbball? Baseball can make a great athlete look silly. Tebow would be a hit down under where they just throw a ball on the field and let the lumberjacks look for it.
Sandy Alderson said that Tebow won't be available every day because he's going to still work at his ESPN broadcast job. So, not a publicity stunt at all. The difference between this fraud and a Kardasian is a decent sex tape.
