They just showed an interview with him on Fox Sports Pittsburgh and he was talking about Barry Bonds.
Supposedly, Bonds "mistreated" Torres when he was a rookie with SF back in the day. Torres claims that Bonds would tell him to "Shut up, you're just a rookie" and in one case, when Torres was in the shower and it was full, Bonds came in, kicked him out and took over the shower and told him "What are you gonna do about it?"
The best part of it all? Torres actually said he CRIED HIMSELF TO SLEEP some nights over it. I couldn't make this up if I tried.
The images I got in my head from reading this were damn funny. Bonds with a bathrobe on taunting Torres as he runs home, and he wimpers softly in his pillow and has nightmares of Barry.

Now before calling him a pansy, would you fight that steroid ridden muscle bound monster when you're some skinny pitcher? Id say hes smart. Though the part where he said I cried myself to sleep and pomps further description made me crack up.

This was '93, back before he was huge and before he may or may not have taken steroids (I still am not convinced, but lets not get into that, please). Barry was still a normal sized speedster/slugger. I dont think Torrez had much stance in that clubhouse anyways. Do you know if this was before or after he pitched like sh*t against the dodgers to keep the giants out of the playoffs (even after winning 103 games, I might add)? If it was after, then I'd have kicked him out of the shower, too.
Didn't realize Torres was that old. That was before Barry went on the roids heh. My mistake. Torres is a sissy girly french man unlike Travis Henry, who plays pro football with a broken leg.
