Disappointed with hand injury, Tim Tebow eager to resume baseball workouts

COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Tim Tebow is anxious to return to full baseball workouts once he completes rehab on a broken bone in his right hand that cut short an All-Star season.

Tebow, 31, played his second season in the New York Mets organization. He batted .273 and had six homers and 36 RBIs with Binghamton in the Class Double A Eastern League before his injury in mid-July. Tebow played in the league's All-Star Game.

Tebow, a college football analyst with the SEC TV Network, was disappointed with the injury but is hopeful his continued improvement will land him in the major leagues.
