It’s the end of the road for <a href="https://news.thesportsdrop.com/mlb/2022-mlb-all-star-game-shohei-ohtani-and-aaron-judge-present-in-midsummer-classic-lineups-2119-20220710-SPD-2119.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Charlie Montoyo</a> with the <a href="https://news.thesportsdrop.com/mlb/mlb-news-dodgers-david-price-opens-up-about-retirement-rumors-2025-20220705-SPD-2025.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Toronto Blue Jays</a> after a rough month of July. It was reported on Wednesday that John Schneider will take over as temporary manager after the dismissal of manager Charlie Montoyo. 



Casey Candaele, the skipper of Triple-A Buffalo, has been named temporary bench coach. So far this season, Toronto have only won three games in July, after a 1-7 road trip that featured a four-game loss to the Seattle Mariners. 



It was announced that Montoyo will be leaving his post after Tuesday’s 4-3 victory against the Philadelphia Phillies at Rogers Centre. The Blue Jays have a record of 46-42 and are currently in third place in the American League’s Wild Card standings and fourth place in the AL East, respectively.



<h2>Charlie Montoyo leaves Toronto with even record</h2>



When Montoyo signed a contract extension through 2023 one week before the start of the new season. His 236-236 record with the Blue Jays is a stalemate at the conclusion of his time in Toronto.



The Blue Jays spent a lot of money to bring in the next generation of players like George Springer, Jose Berroa, and Hyun-jin Ryu. In addition, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Bo Bichette had made their MLB debuts during Montoyo’s fourth season as manager.

Since he’s had a comparable procedure done in 2004, it’s not yet clear how extensive the next operation will be.



In any case, Ryu’s 2022 season is finished, and he’ll have a long road to recovery, particularly if the complete treatment is the course chosen with his elbow. In 2023, Ryu, 35, will be entering the last season of a four-year, <a href="https:\/\/news.thesportsdrop.com/mlb/which-is-the-most-valuable-mlb-team-180-20220503-SPD-180.html" data-type="URL" data-id="https:\/\/news.thesportsdrop.com/mlb/which-is-the-most-valuable-mlb-team-180-20220503-SPD-180.html" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">$80 million contract</a>.



In six starts, he had a 5.67 ERA and a 1.33 WHIP with 16 strikeouts and four walks in 27 innings while dealing with ailments almost from the start of the season. At the start of this year’s season against him, opponents were hitting.294 (541) with a.541 slugging percentage, and he gave up six runs on five hits in only 3 1/3 innings of work.



<h2>What will Toronto do now without Ryu?</h2>



The silver lining of the Blue Jays is that they are resilient enough to take this setback. As of now, Kevin Gausman is the only starter in the five-man rotation. 



Alek Manoah is the only other starter in the group. Stripling began the season as a relief pitcher, but his past two starts, in particular, have shown that he can succeed as a starter (zero runs on two hits in 11 innings).
