Blue Jays fans have taken to social media to voice their displeasure with manager John Schneider after he decided to put Erik Swanson in the game last night costing the team a sweep against the Yankees.

Schneider is far from the most loved man in Toronto and this decision has not made fans like him any more. The Blue Jays manager decided to put reliever Swanson in the game in save situation against a loaded Yankees team for his first game of the season.

John Schneider & his complete lack of judgment today cost the Jays the sweep. How crazy to have Swanson pitch his first game of 2024 season in a SAVE situation against a dangerous AL opponent? Clearly NOT ready! What goddam idiotic move!! What, the analytics dept said it was ok?




Swanson ended up pitching .1 innings given up 3 runs on 3 hits with 0 strikeouts before being pulled.

Fans are mad after another debatable call by the Blue Jays manager in which cost them the sweep against the Yankees. At the end of the day, it is hard to say that is exactly what handed the Yankees the win but it is also not a crazy theory.
