Is the "Cueto" chant....?

...Fair? ...in poor taste? ...having an actual effect? Will it be heard when he comes to bat?

Update:

Since this was an 'opinion' question, I'm going to have to let it go to a vote. Particularly because the answers were expressed as well as they were. I couldn't choose only one and say it was the best.

    That chant can take a player right out of the game, I remember "oil Can Boyd" in the '86 series, couldn't hold the ball anymore and they had to take him out. That was in Shea Stadium.

    I agree that the Pittsburgh fans are just excited and we can understand that and cut them some slack but where is the line drawn? I think it's bordering on un fair and reminds me of the cheering as the lions ate the christians LOL.

    I think Cueto is tough though and will pitch his way out of it. I hope so. I was actually rooting for Pittsburgh until this. Seems a bit silly but I have a thing about being bullied. This is about baseball and fans play a big part in motivating their team but the fans shouldn't be winning the game for the pirates.

    Cut them a little slack but not too much.
