As I write this, Jon Lester's ERA is 5.59 and Joba Chamberlain's ERA is 3.43.
The most controversial and widely-criticized 3.43 ERA in the history of baseball.
Joba was actually taken to task for inducing four double plays in five innings last weekend. (Should have been six, even though that's not really possible. It's just that two of the double plays followed botched double plays.)
People must either really love strikeouts or they really insist on pushing their agendas rather than just enjoying good baseball games.
"Joba Chamberlain belongs in the bullpen because I said so."
Then, their rooting interest is warped. Rather than rooting for their team, they end up rooting for their predictions.
