Mike'd Up: The Mike Francesa Show
- Thread starter cheekydave
- Start date
With the changes they made this year to be a special team... they've shown me nothing that indicates they are special, that they can play that type of baseball... where every out matters... They have come up very very small.

Just joined on WFAN.com. Is Girardi just sitting there listening to Mike's rant?
Girardi's not on until 5:05.

Unfortunately, no. It would be amazing if he could have been bound and gagged next to Tank for the opener.

It is pretty interesting that they're so bad against those two big teams, and so good against the rest, but I just don't buy not giving them credit for beating Tampa Bay. They're still a really good team.
I didn't feel that was a classic Mike rant. Not going to YouTube that.
I'll be on standby for the Girardi interview at 5:05, though.

He was a lot calmer than I expected there.
Because the past three days have proven him correct pretty consistently. That keeps him at bay - he knows he is gonna have carte blanche to destroy some callers.

being at the New Terlet for the Subway Series is taking a lot of the piss out of this. If he were in the studio and the Yanks were just going to Cleveland or Detroit tonight, there would be a lot less focus on the upcoming weekend, and more on the catastrophe sweep.

C'mon, nothing on Swisher's baserunning?
"He is one dumb baseball player."

Thank you. Someone mentions that Swisher's catch the other night wasn't all that great given his awful jump on the ball.
And yet, Kay was practically orgasming.

Just tuned in and heard the Charlie Manuel promo saying "Listen to me with Mike at 5:05 this afternoon"..... Girardi bailed?

He's getting a little worked up now. God, these callers are pathetic.
This makes sense. Mike always plays the depressed and philosophical angle at the end of a series, especially after his talking points proved accurate. Now, he can rage at the stupidity of the callers and individual moments

Might have been ordered to bail

Also I don't think Mike is toning it down today because anyone from the Yankees implored him to do so....if Mike were to suddenly start answering to the Yankees that would pretty much ruin his entire show. He saved his fire and brimstone for yesterday's show and made some predictions almost all of which ended up coming true. It's too early in the season to really lose your mind about anything and he gave it a pretty good performance yesterday.
