Schneider is not in the lineup for Monday's contest against the Red Sox. Schneider finds himself out of the lineup for the second game in a row -- both against right-handed starting pitchers -- after he had started each of the previous seven contests. Nathan Lukes will get the nod in left field for the Blue Jays in the series opener.

Schneider will start in left field and bat fifth in Thursday's game against the Rangers. Schneider will stick in the lineup for the fifth game in a row, with four of his starts during that stretch coming against right-handed pitchers. With Bo Bichette (finger) joining Daulton Varsho (shoulder) and Will Wagner (knee) on the injured list with season-ending injuries, Schneider could see near-everyday playing time over the final week of the 2024 campaign. Schneider is batting just .201 on the season but has picked up the pace lately, as he's gone 8-for-23 (.348 average) with three home runs, one triple, nine RBI and five runs over his last six games.

Schneider went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional run scored in Tuesday's 13-8 loss to the Rangers. Schneider has now posted multiple hits in three straight games, and each of those contests has seen him homer. This power surge comes after he went 54 games without a long ball. The 25-year-old is up to 13 homers, 46 RBI, 46 runs scored, six stolen bases and a .203/.291/.366 slash line through 125 contests this season. Schneider figures to be part of a group of players who will help cover for the absence of Daulton Varsho (shoulder) over the remainder of the campaign.

Schneider went 3-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Cardinals. The 25-year-old utility player took Kyle Gibson deep for a solo shot in the third inning, snapping a 54-game homerless drought that stretched back to June 23. Saturday's multi-hit effort was also his first since July 21. Schneider has mostly failed to re-capture the magic of his 35-game debut from 2023, and through 123 contests this season he's slashing a meager .197/.287/.346 with 11 homers, six steals, 42 RBI and 43 runs.

Schneider isn't in the Blue Jays' lineup for Thursday's game against the Orioles. Schneider will sit down for the second time in Toronto's last three games after going just 2-for-18 with seven strikeouts across his last five contests. Spencer Horwitz will cover second base instead, and a spot in the lineup will open up for Addison Barger to start in right field while batting eighth.
