I can only suppose that he thought that if Denethor realized that Gandalf was away from Pippin, he would have Pippin brought to him & question him, & Pippin would surely screw up without old Gandalf there (& sometimes with him there) !

Somehow this seems the most logical explanation to me, but I personally think it was just so Faramir could see Pippin, and so the audience wouldn't wonder where the hobbit was (since up till that point he had been with Gandalf).
