Welcome to The Sports Virus Podcast

Sportscasters Joe Castellano and Ray Woodson go in-depth to talk about the Bay Area sports scene.

Speaking of acquisitions, the Warriors took a big swing when they traded for Jimmy Butler. How will that effect their chances of being a championship contender? Does Butler make everyone else better? On the baseball front we have a little discussion about what Justin Verlander has left in the tank to give the Giants in 2025..
