For all the hate he got for his batting average, I am thoroughly convinced he was the most essential Astro for the 2022 season and we would not have won without him. A great career.

any word on Meyers?

Only here. I was on twitter almost entirely for Astros stuff, but I just can't be there anymore because its so terrible otherwise. I really hope you move to/stay on blsky because you are my primary/fav source for Astros news.

I agree. It's really just a metaphor for my own understanding of what a university ought to be, informed by my own ideals, community, sense of history, etc. In that way I'd say that institutions don't actually have a life, just competing notions of legitimacy.
