“I don’t know what the chances are (of Tebow being successful), but if I was a Double-A or a Single-A team, I’m signing him to get the ticket sales up”.
If you’re taking him seriously as a baseball player, then you can’t set the bar this low.
Tim Tebow is kind of like a Christian version of Johnny Manziel.
Tebow played baseball as a junior at Nease High in Florida but opted to pursue football in his senior year.
Still, Aardsma believes there is definitely enough ability to work with for some organization to take a shot on Tebow. “And the guy is like, ‘Holy crap, that’s the farthest I’ve seen anything hit in my life'”.
Tim Tebow on the baseball diamond apparently appeals to a majority of MLB teams.
Over the last few months, Tebow had been working with former Yankee Chad Moeller at Moeller’s facility in Arizona.
The third and long caused Tebow to try and pump up his team in the huddle, to psyche them up for the big play coming and Anderson didn’t find that as a positive during the game.
Relief pitcher Aardsma thinks Tebow should play in instructional league and winter ball.
Tebow’s tryout will draw tons of media attention and it will be easy to overlook the workout as anything other than a hype-driven event. On another, however, “I made him look bad”, Aardsma said. Tebow’s football career stalled after a couple of years in the pros and despite doing a good job on tv.the 29 year old has chose to give baseball a try. Tebow might be pursued strongly by the Detroit Tigers based on this Major League Baseball rumors.
Tebow, 29, won the Heisman Trophy and two national championships with the University of Florida and was drafted in the first round by the Denver Broncos in 2010. “I have seen Tim’s workouts, and people inside and outside the industry – scouts, executives, players and fans – will be impressed by his talent”.

“I was really impressed with his adjustments”, said Aardsma, who wrote about the experience on the website baseballessential.com.
