They need to IL him and send him to Dunedin to the pitching complex. Get his conditioning up to speed and then (hopefully) dominate a few starts at A ball to get his confidence back up. Then bring him up one level at a time.
Whatever they do though, they cannot trot him out in another MLB game. The Jays are 4-9 in his starts and had to score 10 in the season opener to win that one. They are basically punting his starts now and it's going to cost them a playoff spot.
Bring up Bowden Francis and have a sort of bullpen day. Or claim Plesac off waivers, the guy just got DFAed and he has 0.2fWAR compared to Manoah at -0.8fWAR
