The Mets have announced that they have signed Tim Tebow to a minor league contract.
This seems significant just because of the gamut of emotions I have gone through as a Rays fans over the last few weeks. It went something like this:
- Tim Tebow wants to play baseball! He’ll be awful, but that’s OK, because half of the low-level minor leaguers are just roster fillers anyway and this will be good for one hard-working minor league team. They’ll sell tickets and jerseys and will get a much-deserved bump. Besides, the baseball writers deserve this.
