Did Blue Jays make right move hiring John Schneider as manager?

One of the Toronto Blue Jays' biggest offseason questions was answered on Friday when the team elected to remove the interim tag from manager John Schneider's title. Schneider signed a three-year extension that locks him in as the Blue Jays' skipper through the 2025 season.

The 42-year-old took over for the fired Charlie Montoyo on July 13 and led the Blue Jays to a 46-28 record and the top wild-card spot in the American League, ultimately falling to the Seattle Mariners in the playoffs. The longtime member of the Blue Jays organization is thrilled to continue his growth as a leader as Toronto keeps pushing for a World Series title.
