    this is not the kind of comp that I like to see about phils prospects

    Jorge Alfaro, c, Phillies. Alfaro, part of the package the Phillies received for Cole Hamels, strained his right oblique, the team announced. He could miss several weeks. Alfaro was off to a terrific start, going 18-for-36 to start the season with six extra-base hits. Alfaro’s defense trails his bat right now, so the Phillies were having him get plenty of repetitions behind the plate. He has been compared to former Phillies outfielder Jeff Francoeur for his power and aggressive approach and some scouts believe he might end up in right field.

    Looks like showers Friday morning. I am only really concerned with Friday afternoon as that is when we'll be tailgating. Hopefully it stops by then. Can't.Wait. Going all out on the tailgate, I do believe

    I just checked the comment section on those club box seats I got and it says "food and drink available for purchase." Not too confident on that being open bar for 3 hours now. Oh well.

    We're playing Broad Run Friday morning and then heading straight down. You ever play there? Supposed to be an awesome course.

    That stinks. At least booze/bathrooms are convenient.

    I did, a couple years ago with guys I worked with at the time, one of which is like a 7 handicap. Really nice course.

    Work about 3 blocks away. Lots of stuff. Depends on what type of atmosphere you're looking for.
    Smiths is a good spot. Good Dog is a solid spot and is right by the subway for you. Devil's Alley. Monk's (belgium beer bar), Jose Pistola's. Then of course there's Drinkers and the like.

    I'm staying right in that area as well. Somehow I always end up at McGillins at the end of the night

    Ha, yeah, sounds about right. It is always a shit show, but I dig McGillans in small doses...

    Monk's noted.

    Atmosphere we may be looking for is a place that can handle 10 PJ fans from across the US / Canada who may get loud.

    I'll look those places up you listed Cliffy.

    The golf talk may have me getting up earlier and stopping somewhere on the way down to play 18

    Good times. Monk's is a great spot, but could potentially be tough depending on what time you get there. If there's space at the back bar, you could be good to take that area over.

    All of the spots I listed aren't huge, so all depends on the time. Could be touch and go around Happy Hour on a Thursday for a big group as there are a ton of office buildings in the area. If you know what time, call ahead and grab a big table. Devil's Alley should definitely be able to set you up with a table. A bit on the nicer side of the places I listed, but not fancy or anything.

    Of course there are a ton of big spots that typically serve a serve a younger crowd. Misconduct, Drinkers, Fado, Fox and Hound, Ladder 15 (ha).

    Irish Pub is right by you too. So so, but serves it's purpose.

    Yeah, only once though. Was right by my old gig. Downstairs from Bru, which is a spot I like and went to often when I worked around there.

    Yeah, it's alright. Fine for happy hour for sure, but not my scene at night. Too old for crowds and tools.

    F. Me.

    Just an FYI - Jazz Fest is nothing but lines and lines and lines and lines of people. I don't think I've ever been around that many people - I'm going out on a limb and am going to say there was at least 100-120k people. But go at least once, pretty fucking sweet.....when not covered in people.
