The Toronto Blue Jays and manager John Gibbons are reportedly ready to part ways after the season's end, according to Jon Heyman of Fancred Sports.

A source that is familiar with "the thinking of both parties" told Heyman that the decision was "99.9% done." Gibbons and Blue Jays general manager Ross Atkins have allegedly spoken multiple times on the matter, reports Heyman.

"We'll sit down after the year and see what direction we're going to, myself included," Gibbons said.

Atkins declined to comment.

The Blue Jays are reportedly looking to hire a younger manager that can compete in 2020 or 2021.
