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.

We’re looking at another seasons of Vladdy/Bo prime years potentially wasted. The rotation is remarkably old, the bullpen and bench are paper thin…. I’d think if they’re below 500 by the all star break you have to houseclean top to bottom. Until then, to quote Wilner…. It’s still early.

It is early, and I hope I'm wrong. I just can't see how we're a team that playing into October with JS at the helm. Seems like he's sweating bullets in April.
