Former NFL quarterback and current ESPN broadcaster Tim Tebow is actively pursuing a career in professional baseball and plans to hold a workout for Major League Baseball teams later this month, according to his agents Jimmy Sexton and Nick Khan.For almost the past year, Tebow has been training in Arizona and Los Angeles to hone his hitting and fielding skills in a sport he has not played on a full-time basis since 2005.Tebow was an all-state baseball player in Florida that year and hit .494 as a junior, helping Nease High School reach the final four of the Florida state playoffs.Obviously we support Tim in his pursuit of a baseball career, as we have in all his ventures, said Sexton, Tebows football agent, who is now working with CAA baseball agent Brodie Van Wagenen.Tims athletic ability, his work ethic, his leadership and his competitiveness were evident in football and will show in baseball. Knowing Tims passion and desire, we wont be surprised by anything he accomplishes.Tebow -- who will turn 29 on Sunday -- has notified his current employer, ESPN, of his desire to chase a baseball career, but he will continue to fulfill his broadcast obligations to the network.Tebow had a tryout with the Los Angeles Dodgers before this season, sources tell ESPNs Darren Rovell. A scout was present for the workout, and the team showed interest in Tebow afterward, the sources said.Orioles center fielder?Adam Jones?reacted to the news on Twitter:Former MLB catcher Chad Moeller said in a statement through Tebows agent,?I am beyond impressed with Tims athleticism and swing, and it goes without saying that he has shown a high level of discipline and strong work ethic. I see bat speed and power and real baseball talent. I truly believe Tim has the skill set and potential to achieve his goal of playing in the Major Leagues, and based on what I have seen over the past two months, it could happen relatively quickly.But a major league scouting director told ESPNs Jayson Stark on Tuesday: Eleven years [of not playing baseball], nobody can overcome that.Chicago Bears coach John Fox told ESPNs Jeff Dickerson on Tuesday, [When I coached him] he was very competitive and very dedicated to life. Hes a guy I was very, very impressed with. He also took us [the Broncos] to the playoffs and won a playoff game for us. [I enjoyed] being around him because he works extremely hard at whatever he does.Eric Decker, who played with Tebow in Denver, guaranteed that a minor league team will sign him.Ill just say if you havent played baseball for 10 years or however many years its been, I dont know what the chances are, but if I was a double-a or single-a team, Im signing him to get the ticket sales up, Decker said. Im sure hell have success in that field. But as far as the skill aspect, I think hitting a baseball is one of the hardest things so itll be interesting to see his progress.All 30 MLB teams will be invited to Tebows workout at the end of the month, an event he has been preparing for over the past year. Those who have seen Tebow hit have been surprised he picked up the sport so quickly after not playing it since high school.This may sound like a publicity stunt, but nothing could be further from the truth, Wagenen said in a statement through Tebows agent. I have seen Tims workouts, and people inside and outside the industry -- scouts, executives, players and fans -- will be impressed by his talent.In reaction to the news, the Schaumburg Boomers, an Illinois-based minor league team in the independent Frontier League, announced Tuesday that they have offered a Tebow a contract.?Football coaches had been aware of Tebows baseball prowess. One of Urban Meyers first encounters with Tebow was on the baseball field, and college coaches knew of the quarterbacks interest and talents in baseball.Now, with Tebows football career stalled, he has decided to pursue another one of the sports he excelled at in high school.Nike Air Max 270 Outlet .C. -- Glenn Howard needed an extra end to move into the Masters Grand Slam of Curling final.
