After the Blue Jays loss to the Mets last night former manager John Gibbons spoke on the team's current manager John Schneider.
Gibbons who led the Blue Jays to some incredible seasons in 2015 and 2016 mentioned how he feels pain for Schneider as he knows what it is like to deal with fans that are upset with the current place of the team.
«I'm a big Schneids fan,» Gibbons said. «He used to come to Spring Training with us, throw BP, help with the catching and stuff like that. He's a good baseball guy. I feel his pain, man, when he takes some heat. Everybody in this business does, and I've been in those spots. They got to the postseason. We would have died for that a few years back, right? It's been in and out. He just needs to stay strong, stay positive and keep running the boys out there.»
The former Blue Jays manager faced a lot of criticism in during his first stint in Toronto that ended in 2008 but found a loss of success on his second time around when he was brought back in 2013.
