Chris Duncan has made frequent appearances back on the airwaves at WXOS 101 ESPN Radio following surgery in October on a brain tumor, but the former St. Louis Cardinal-turned broadcaster appears ready to resume his regular perch at the Creve Coeur based station.

" REALLY looking forward to having @ chrisduncan11 back in his chair for the @ 101ESPNFastLane tomorrow at 2:00. Welcome back, Dunc," was what Randy Karraker tweeted Sunday, about the drive-time show the pair have co-hosted with former St. Louis Ram D'Marco Farr. Duncan re-tweeted the message.

Former Cardinals pitcher Brad Thompson has filled in dutifully for Duncan, and talked on air in recent days of trying to resume his pro career.

A decision has not been announced regarding the future of the 9 a.m. - 11 a.m. timeslot, where Zach McCrite has been with a rotating cast of aspiring co-hosts since Rick Venturi left the station on a full-time basis to have a hip replacement and spend more time with family.
