Episode 24: “Garlic Fries and Chicken Tenders”

Chad and Ben jump into Spring Training talk looking at some recent results and some recent injury revelations and how they impact the players in camp.  They also discuss converted infielders like Sergio Santos as well as several cuts to minor leaguers and roster invitees before bringing on Christina Russo for an interview and some of her Spring Training experiences.  We wind up with a discussion of gender and female fans, hate on Bryce Harper, and close with a somber note on Fabrice Muamba.

Episode 22: “The One-Game Postseason”

A little late posting due to technical difficulties, so it’ll be a double TortureCast weekend.  More torture for everyone!

This week (or rather last week) Chad and Ben get together and discuss the hurriedly revamped MLB Wild Card structure and its implications for teams that make it as the Wild Card.  They also discuss alcohol in the Red Sox clubhouse, Sergio Romo (because he’s Sergio Romo), the first week of Spring Training games, astronomy, and Pilates.

Episode 20: “The BusterCast”

With Willie away for work, Chad and Ben welcome guest Erin to the show to talk Spring Training.  There are pitchers, there are catchers, and a pleasant sigh: there is baseball.  With the end of the offseason nigh, we talk Spring, we talk Lincecum, Pat Burrell, Sergio Romo, a glut of catching depth, and Buster Posey.

Man, oh man, do we ever talk about Buster Posey.

Check out the first TortureCast of the 2012 Spring Training season! Believe it — baseball is BACK!

Episode 19: “One Less Double-Double”

Line-ups and tigers and burgers, oh my! Chad, Willie, and Ben talk counting calories, notable birthdays, FanFest, Posey and the catcher situation, and of course, Timmy’s dietary habits!

Plus: Chad still hates Eli Manning, Johnny Velvet has a birthday (someone warn the post-game reporter), and Ben completely loses it explaining why we will win it all.

Don’t forget to check out our AWESOME new intro! Thanks to Ashkon (@ashkonmusic) and Bailey (@baileymuzik) for letting us use their awesome collab track “Feelin’ Like A Giant”.  It’s an all-new TortureCast, just in time for an all-new season of Your San Francisco Giants!
