Educating Twitter: Stupid for José Ramírez

Well, I guess I’m stupid.

It’s disappointing, because I never thought I was stupid, but some anonymous guy who goes by the handle “@cywheela” on Twitter says that anyone who thinks José Ramírez is a better player than Rafael Devers is stupid, so here we are.

I want to be fair to Cy, which is the name I’ve decided to call him, so here’s exactly what he said.

No, he didn’t precisely say “Anyone who thinks José Ramírez is better than Rafael Devers is stupid,” but that’s pretty obviously the message he’s trying to deliver. Or maybe it’s not. I mean, I’m apparently stupid, so how would I know?

Before accepting Cy’s verdict about my intelligence, I would like to try to defend myself. Maybe, while doing so, I’ll see the light about the relative wonderfulness levels of Devers and Ramírez and take away Cy’s grounds for insulting me. Hey, a guy can dream.
