Mike Francesa returns to WFAN: Here's his expected return date, and for how long?

We may have a date for Zaun Day.

The official WFAN company line remains the station is only in talks with Mike Francesa about a potential return to its afternoon drive-time spot after four months away. But all indications are it's a done deal, and one that may come to pass very soon.

WFAN morning show host Boomer Esiason said Wednesday he thinks Francesa could be back on the station next Tuesday, May 1, and a report by Newsday's Neil Best confirmed the possibility, citing a source. Additionally, Best reports Francesa is expected to sign a contract that runs through 2020.
