The team faces a tough call: send him down to Triple-A for a confidence boost — like they did with Jacob Lopez — or keep him in the rotation despite the struggles. With few other options, the Athletics may have no choice but to ride it out — unless Jump can find his groove in the minors and come back stronger for next year.
