FORT MYERS, Fla. -- A resolution has been reached between the Red Sox players, Major League Baseball and MLBPA in regards to the compensation for the coaching staff. As a result the team will travel to Japan. Red Sox player rep Kevin Youkilis will address the situation later this afternoon and we'll have more as it becomes available.

I think the basis of this entire article is flawed. The team never said they WOULDN'T go to Japan, just that they would sit out the exhibition game with the Blue Jays.
