All it says is that he has control. He might be the real deal but there is zero MLB reports on the guy yet and guys haven't faced him yet. Pitchers automatically have an advantage when they haven't been faced yet.
He is going to have a good season this year, next year will be the telling year if he can make it or not. He will have to make adjustments because the hitters will be making them.
