Report: Tim Tebow could get promotion within Mets’ farm system

The New York Mets are said to be considering the possibility of promoting Tim Tebow in their minor league system.

The New York Post reports that if a promotion does occur, it likely would not happen until after the All-Star Game in July.

Tebow is an outfielder with the Columbia Fireflies of the Class A South Atlantic League. The Mets also have a Class A team in the Florida State League, which is considered much stronger than the South Atlantic League. Presumably, then, a potential landing spot would be the St. Lucie Mets of the Class A Florida State League.
