PORT ST. LUCIE — Tim Tebow has been reassigned to minor league camp by the New York Mets after hitting .267 with one RBI in eight spring training games.
The 31-year-old outfielder attended big league camp for the second straight year and is expected to start the season at Triple-A Syracuse. The 2007 Heisman Trophy winner out of the University of Florida went 4 for 15 with no extra-base hits in 18 plate appearances during spring training.
Tebow batted .273 with six home runs, 14 doubles and 36 RBIs in 84 games for Double-A Binghamton last year.
His statement in the aftermath of that loss to Ole Pis was the most inspiring ever made by a UF athelete. Too bad U. Meyer ruined his football career by greedily leaving him in a blowout game at Kenturkey, getting him concussed.
That’s athlete. It’s early.
Who cares about the speeling, you made your point in spades.
An no word on Pete Alonso who is killing it in Spring Training…
