If you use Redeemer's and Blue Dragon you gain nothing if it does not proc the entire fight, but if it does you are laughing (even more with a double proc). If you have WWS or some way of determining how many times it has proc'd for you then I would monitor it using that. If you find it is rarely proc'ing you may as well stick with using the Earring/Alchemy Stone that way you are at least getting something out of your one trinket slot, and not just praying for a proc.
Looking at the WWS logs from a night of about 18 Brut attempts where I experimented with using the Blue Dragon, I got a total of 22 procs over those 18 attempts. I haven't actually gone through every attempt to see if it worked out to 1 proc per attempt (plus some lucky ones where I got 2) or if it was slightly more erratic than that.

One should be able to reasonably expect, though, that you'll get at least one proc in the course of 6 full minutes of GHeal spam.

Edit: My issue with Clearcast procs on a GH spamming fight is that I'm usually already halfway through my next cast when I see clearcast proccing. Not to mention that waiting for a clearcast proc before I pop Inner Focus and Earring basically means that I won't actually get to use the trinket an optimal number of times. (I suppose you could force yourself to do something like: always pop the trinket 30s or 1 minute into the fight to guarantee at least the first use, and then save the second use for a clearcast proc).
