How do you say "you suck" in Mandarin?

Back on May 31st Chien-Ming Wang was sporting a 3-4 record with a 4.13 ERA and the Yankees weren't doing that well.
He went on a tear his next 4 starts- winning all four and helping to jump start New York.
Here are the stats for those outings: (decision-innings pitched-hits-walks-K-ER (ERA))
W - 5 2/3 - 10 - 2 - 1 - 3 (4.19)
W - 9 - 5 - 1 - 4 - 1 (3.73)
W - 7 - 6 - 0 - 2 - 1 (3.49)
W - 8 2/3 - 6 - 1 - 10 - 2 (3.33)
So he pitched 30 1/3 innings only giving up 7 ERs and also posted a career best 10 Ks in one game and pitched a complete game.
That was when I picked him up, trying to get in on some of his & the Yankees success. He next 2 outings went as such:
6 1/3 innings, 6 hits, 2 walks, 4 ERs, 0 Ks. He got a No Decision and the Yankees lost 5-6 to San Fran.
6 1/3 innings, 9 hits, 3 walks, 6 ERs, 1 K. He got another No Decision and the Yankees won 8-6 against Baltimore.
(Neither are that prolific offenses)
Then I dropped his sorry butt.
And another team picked him up. Since then, he has won 2 games, shutting out the Twins and the Angels and dropping his ERA from 3.86 to 3.36.
Thank you for killing my team's pitching and adding insult to injury by helping out an opponent.

Never question the Yankees or the Taiwanese! :) Do you remember what I said about Mariano Rivera a few months ago? Looks like Mo is back in fine form once again! The Yanks are only 10 back going into the All-Star break. All things are possible...
