Read this if you think Zito was horrible the whole time: the 2012 World Series would NOT have been possible with out him:
On October 19, 2012, Zito rebounded and pitched arguably the best game of his career, tossing 7 2/3 shutout innings against the St. Louis Cardinals in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series (NLCS), earning the win.[76] It was his first postseason win since 2006 and according to Zito himself, was the biggest win of his career.[77] That same day, Zito inspired the Twitter hashtag #rallyzito, which, behind the efforts of Giants fans, was trending worldwide on the social networking site.[78] The Giants, after trailing 3-1 in the series, prevailed in seven games.[79]
On October 24, 2012, Zito pitched in the first World Series of his career. As the Game 1 starter, Zito earned the win, outpitching Detroit's Justin Verlander by tossing 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball. Zito also added an RBI single en route to an 8–3 Giants win.[80] The Giants went on to sweep the Tigers in the World Series, and Zito went 2–0 with a 1.69 earned run average in the postseason.[81] Zito did not lose a single game after August 2 against the Mets, and San Francisco won his last 14 starts.[82]

True but when you sign the richest contract all time (at the time)for a pitcher, a fanbase expects more than 2 outstanding outings especially considering the circumstances when zito was signed
Almost all giants fans are very pleased the zito years have passed
