He doesn't get it. Neshek's not having a rough month because a lot of duck snorts are falling in; he's throwing batting practice. That pitch to Kemp was on a tee, as was everything he threw in Arizona.
FWIW, this is where an argument with someone over-committed to sabermetrics can go badly off the rails. This isn't really "regression", but him showing his ass as a marginal pitcher.
