Curt Schilling今天早上在WEEI訪問的時候說Dice-K老婆剛好
在這段時間是預產期，所以Dice-K可能不會隨隊出征。
(Then what's the point of openning season in Japan? lol)
Curt Schilling也說他會享受這段旅程，因為他不用投。
(如果Dice-K不是第二先發，那我想第二場應該是你老人家喔...
and 就算第二場不是Schilling，那我想他應該會被直接送到
Oakland而不是Tokyo。 Either way, he might not enjoy the
trip。)
Red Sox球員並不是這麼愛這段行程，紅襪有舉行一個Private Meeting
來投票，結論去不贊成去日本的為多數。
Big Papi說之前日米交流賽後他需要兩個禮拜才調回他的normal routine
(快裝膝蓋痛不要去日本吧)
這趟旅程會讓賽季提早開始，也代表春訓要提早。
上一個在日本打開幕戰的球隊是2004的NYY和TBR，NYY之後四月的戰績是
11-10，是當季NYY戰績除了三月和十月最差的一個月。
