CALL COUNT TODAY FOR FRANCESA

WFAN sources have confirmed that host Mike Francesa is on a strict call count today. It has been reported that Francesa will be pulled after 105 callers. The source added "If you look back at his history, there have been very few times he's been over 100 calls. And I think, for the most part, we have used up that allotment already this week. So that's not something that he's familiar with. If he's not accustomed to it, I don't think we should run the risk of that." WFAN has not revealed who will come in to finish out the show when Francesa is removed.

most definitely the schmoozer...he's a good long-man out of the pen, but can also close games.

Yes, he said it....he said he was wrong about delgado. A caller brought up mike's comments after carlos' 9 rbi game. And mike said he was wrong....nonetheless, he also mentioned that he is still not sold on delgado for the rest of the season, and beyond. But, he did say that he did not expect delgado was capable of the stretch he is currently in. Also, Mike confirmed the rumor that he was available to pinch hit in the all-star game if it went 16 innings.
