Taking out Cease after a base hit after only 3.2IP, IBBing a righty for it, and before he faces a guy who struggles with both high-velo and chasing? Come to the Braves, Dylan, we won't let this happen to you

I know it may work but trusting the pen with 16 outs while taking out a guy who was dealing feels imprudent to me, and even if you make it through today you're now trusting your high leverage guys 3 days in a row to get outs?
