Literally no one thought this. Some posters got excited because Hernandez appeared to be emerging as a much better asset than anticipated, seeing as we virtually got him for free. You, being a contrarian, decided you wanted to poopoo any excitement whatsoever and, being carried away by your own hubris, decided to make a free bet against the entire board just so you could say "I told you so" in the (somewhat likely) event Hernandez came crashing back down to Earth. Then Hernandez predictably regressed, but not as much or as fast as you bet he would, and now you're trying to act like we all thought he was the next coming of Barry Bonds, when in fact, people were just happy that we were getting something out of a free asset. You are joyless curmudgeon, and your instinct to s*** on other people's optimism bit you in the ass, so maybe just wear it instead of acting like you're actually still right. Whatever happens to Hernandez going forward is actually completely irrelevant. You lost, end of story.
