"Schneider has been in the Blue Jays' organization since they drafted him in the 24th round of the 2001 draft. He never made the big leagues, retiring from play after the 2007 season, but joining the organization as a coach."
"After taking over as interim coach in mid July 2022, the Jays went 46-28, finishing in the first wild card spot before collapsing to the Seattle Mariners in the Wild Card series."
"The 2024 season was an off-year for the organization, as they went 74-88, giving them the worst record in the American League East, with multiple issues affecting the team's performance."
"In 2025, the Jays rebounded, finishing first in the American League East with a 94-68 record, earning a bye and defeating their rivals in the Divisional Series."
The Toronto Blue Jays have confirmed manager Schneider's position for three more seasons by activating his 2026 team option. Schneider, who joined the organization in 2001, became interim coach in 2022 and led the team to a wild card spot. After a disappointing 2024 season, the Jays rebounded in 2025, finishing first in the American League East and advancing to the Championship Series. General manager Atkins has been with the team since 2016, overseeing its evolution from contender to a challenging phase and back to success.
