Morning Chop: There’s an Atlanta Braves Connection to Tebow

Jeff Passan of Yahoo Sports seems to be a bit more on Tebow’s baseball bandwagon than most as representatives from close to 20 different major league clubs (including Atlanta) gather in Los Angeles for brunch and a tryout today. But whether any team opts to bring him in for a closer look after today may not matter for a while, for Tim already has a contract offer in hand.

Passan writes:

Aguilas del Zulia, a five-time champion of the Venezuelan Professional Baseball League and two-time Caribbean Series winner, sent a contract to Tebow’s representation at CAA on Monday in hopes of securing him for the league filled with major leaguers and on-the-rise prospects.
