The New York Mets announced some names that would be cut from spring training camp on Friday. Tim Tebow was perhaps the highest-profile player among those who won’t stick with the group for now.
Besides Tebow, who will soon represent the Philippines in the preliminary stage of the World Baseball Classic (WBC) players such as left-handers Thomas Szapucki (the Mets’ No. 7 prospect according to MLB Pipeline) and Stephen Gonsalves, right-handers Franklyn Kilome (No. 12 prospect), Jordan Humphreys (No. 14 prospect), Matt Blackham, Stephen Nogosek, Nick Rumbelow and Francisco Ríos, and catchers Austin Bossart and David Rodríguez were cut.
