NEW YORK METS LEGEND TIM TEBOW NEEDS HIS OWN THREAD

when a guy goes 1-for-18 with 11 strikeouts in spring training, a team really has no choice but to promote him to double-a

not coincidentally, the binghamton rumble ponies had the worst attendance figures in the eastern league last year, so . . .

"rumble ponies"! nice

and we can retire this thread til he gets 2 weeks in Vegas

Timothy 1:18 : Timothy, my son, I am giving you this command in keeping with the prophecies once made about you, so that by recalling them you may fight the battle well

i think this is where it ends. there are real pitchers who have game plans and multiple pitches in double-a; he has no business being there

did it end when Jesus got DFA'd from the planet Earth

I rooted against him in his football career but I'm kind of rooting for this version of tebow. two sport athletes like this are so rare

currently a league average hitting AA player. presumably is a below average defender, so...

Today on @BaseballPro we have an updated, Double-A scouting report on Tim Tebow from @jaseidler and ... he's actually becoming a decent player?!

i was checking in on him the other day, for some reason. apparently he's been on a bit of a hot streak for the last few weeks, now

that 38% strikeout rate paired with a .128 ISO, though

lmao this guy is 30 years old

TIM TEBOW, DOUBLE-A EASTERN LEAGUE ALL-STAR

I just plain like tim tebow now and am rooting for him

hitting .318/.357/.455 in june, 107 wRC+ overall

pretty impressive tbh

strikes out 37% of the time, has an unsustainable .420 babip, but still

mook, if he gets a cup of coffee in September... i *may* forgive you someday

on the bright side, matt harvey has won three consecutive starts for the first time since 2015

well he's with a team that occasionally scores runs now

alas

Can confirm @AdamSchefter that Tim Tebow likely out for season with broken hamate bone. Though not a prospect, he has worked hard, is well-liked -- and this could have been his chance to play in MLB

Tim Tebow is not taking well to Triple-A Syracuse. He went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts today, falling to .143/.211/.186 with a 35-percent K rate in 21 games. Tebow has just three extra-base hits and no home runs.

out of 422 qualified batters at the AA and AAA levels, tim tebow ranks 422nd with a .456 OPS (.153/.234/.221) and 18 wRC+

his 37.7% strikeout rate is seventh-worst, but he does have one homer

i'm sorry your promotion dream is dead, mook

well not really

i was more stunned to see that he's now teammates with ruben tejada -- and that tejada is somehow only 29

this may be the closest tebow gets to the majors

Syracuse Mets lineup tonight:

Brandon Nimmo CF
Robinson Cano 2B
Danny Espinosa SS
Rajai Davis DH
Aaron Altherr RF
Rene Rivera C
Dilson Herrera 1B
Ruben Tejada 3B
Tim Tebow LF

Justin Wilson the starting pitcher

— Michael Mayer (@mikemayerMMO) June 11, 2019

currently slashing .149/.234/.214, which I guess would be decent for a pitcher

rip

Finger injury ends season for Mets' Tebow

.163/.240/.255 in 77 games this year; he'll be 32 on wednesday

YOUR DREAM IS OVER

invited to big league training camp! #mets

haha this is just a ticket selling scam at this point

'at this point'

ok fair

Tim Tebow just hit his first extra-base hit in four years of big league camp: a two-run homer off veteran reliever Alex Wilson.
