When winnnig doesn't even guarantee the title, it's not worth the risk. No sense gambling on something out of your team's control.
And heck, they did win. Imagine what a boost it would have been had their bench players sealed the title. There was way more upside to giving the starters the rest than making Nomar hobble out there for a game that's only semi-meaninful.
