When the Yankees opened overseas they complained about it for about the first 3 months of the season. Players were getting sick and everything.

I assume Dice-K will get the game two start since Beckett will probably open.

I remember that myself. Posoda that was extremely vocal about it too.

I was under the impression that several doctors pretty much went against the notion that Giambi and Brown got sick from their trip to Japan a few years back, something about the time period the intestinal parasite they came up with would have showed up sooner in both of them if they had been contracted with it in Japan??? In fact, I thought they narrowed it down to both of them picking it up while they were in Los Angeles or Phoenix. Either way, screw 'em
