Tim Tebow gets invitation to Mets' spring training

Tim Tebow will get a chance to face some of Major League Baseball's best pitchers in 2021. The New York Mets announced their spring training roster, and the former Denver Broncos quarterback made the cut. 

Tebow likely won't make the Mets' major league roster. He has taken part in several spring trainings with the franchise, getting sent to the minors fairly quickly. 

In his previous spring training games, Tebow has looked overmatched against some of baseball's best players. Over his career, Tebow has hit .151/.262/.192 in 73 spring at-bats. 

Tebow, who is 33 years old, will likely not get many more opportunities with the Mets if he doesn't show significant improvement at the plate in 2021.
