“I’m here now to stay sane and run around and take batting practice and do whatever they need to see me do. I’m ready to get back out there.”

Well, you heard him.  Brian is spending most of his time running around and staying sane, like a border collie.  But the important thing isn’t how he’s getting better.  Its that he’s getting better.  The more important of the important things is that the sooner he gets back, the sooner Dane Sardinha can go back to the windowless basement he gets chained in when he’s not being used to take up space/ruin everything.

I never even considered that Brian could come back to us completely insane.  I was just glad he’d be back; I didn’t think we’d have to worry about Ryan Madson furiously shaking him off for five minutes as Brian calls for pitches that do not exist.

"C'mon, give him the scatball! Bwoop bwoop bwoop!"
