FORT MYERS, Fla. -- More on the conversation Red Sox captain Jason Varitek had with reporters earlier . . .
''We have to make a stand because that’s part of our unit,'' said Varitek. "It isn’t just players, it’s staff members, too.''
Are you going to Japan?
"We’ll see, don’t know yet,'' said Varitek.
On playing today?
"It all depends on how long [MLB] will wait,'' said Varitek. "It depends on how quickly we get a decision and depends on a lot of things. [Toronto] may be ready to go home. There are a lot of different factors, but the first factor is, and we hate to put [Toronto] in jeopardy and the fans, but in our viewpoint this is a needed thing."
When asked if the Blue Jays understood the Sox' position, Varitek said, "My understanding is they do."
