Padres reliever Doug Brocail was activated from the disabled list Thursday, a little over four months after undergoing the first of two heart angioplasties during the spring. "I think that the doctor did such a good job that it was one of those things that if I was willing and not scared to come back, which obviously I wasn't, that everything would go fine," Brocail said after a team workout Thursday afternoon. "And it's gone fine." "My wife's flying out just to make sure it's really me out there," Brocail joked.
