30 people who are probably better at baseball right now than Tim Tebow

Tim Tebow is definitely not better at baseball today than Barry Bonds.

Former NFL punt protector Tim Tebow wants to be a major league baseball player. This is a terrible idea. 

Tebow, who turns 29 on Sunday, hasn’t played baseball since he was a junior in high school. And he thinks he has a shot to make it to the majors? Come on. 

His agent says he’s good, but he gets paid to say that. The reality is that Tebow is probably very bad—better than your average citizen, but far worse than any player with a legitimate MLB chance.

Below is a list of people I’m fairly confident are better at baseball today than Tim Tebow. 

1. Barry Bonds

3. Russell Wilson

4. Brandon Weeden

5. ​Shea Hillenbrand

6. Bartolo Colon (as a hitter)

​10. Julio Franco

11. Clay Bellinger

​12. LeBron James

13. Derek Jeter

14. Kieran Powell
