A little early for that. If it's still an eight+ run lead after six than do it. You can't take this win for granted right now when we need all the Ws we can get. Disagree. 8 is and should be enough. Get him off his feet and put a better defensive player out there. It could've paid dividends down the road as he might play a game he normally wouldn't of. It's a moot point now, but "should" is the operative word here. These are the Brewers after all, and it's not like losing a game you had an eight run lead in is unprecedented. A "we don't deserve to win if we blow this big lead" is a dangerous mindset to have when you're battling for a playoff spot, especially a game against the Cubs. Did you think the Falcons had the Super Bowl wrapped up at 28-3? That being said, I think we're safe now with a 14 run lead.
