The Toronto Blue Jays and manager John Schneider have agreed to terms on a three-year contract with a team option for the 2026 season.
Schneider guided the club to a 46-28 record after being promoted from bench coach to interim skipper on July 13.
The Blue Jays reached the playoffs but were swept in the wild-card series by the Seattle Mariners.
Schneider is the 14th manager in franchise history.
In a news release, the 42-year-old native of Princeton, N.J., says he’s honoured, excited and deeply humbled.
Schneider and general manager Ross Atkins are scheduled to attend an afternoon media availability at Rogers Centre.
