It'd be nice... but if I were Riggleman I might consider keeping Clippard in here and letting him finish it off.  He didn't even break a sweat in the eighth.

Agreed, but Riggles is big on well defined roles.  There is some value in that from a management/leadership perspective, irrespective of what actually makes sense at the time.

Contrary to your thought, pulling Clippard now makes him readily available tomorrow if the game is tight, which it is likely to be.
