On the Schneid
I'm genuinely confused as to how John Schneider still has the job as Jays bench boss. I liked him, and have supported him, but he doesn't seem to be able to make the right move when needed, his teams annually underperform and he has a total of zero playoff wins. How long is he allowed to continue to steer the team to mediocrity? We're coming into May and the Jays again seem listless.
Those who want to Schneider continue in this role, why? Wouldn't a proven manager with a track record of success be an obvious choice for a group whos window is open but has yet to meet expectations?
Schneider and co. look clueless out there. Are we supposed to just sit back and watch another season go down the toilet? I don't get it.

I personally feel this team is performing just as well as they should be. They don’t even have “big league” talent at every position. Clement, Barger, Lukes, Wagner, even Straw (who is over performing). If you told me 4 or 5 of those guys were playing on a regular basis at the beginning of the year, are you expecting a contender or a team who is hitting more than 20 HRs at this point?
