Yes, and until I looked at some of the statistical breakdown of his throws, I chalked a lot of that up to system. The throw chart that's been posted in here a few times shows that he isn't just completing a crazy number of short throws. His accuracy shows up at all three levels in all three zones of the field.
It's also just not about completion percentage. It's about ball placement, too.
That's something you'll see in the scouting reports. If you read several of them, you'll notice a lot of talk about his ability to put the throw where it HAS to go (not just where it can be caught). That's tough to teach.
Oh, you'll also read about his clean and consistent throwing mechanics in those scouting reports (a key to his accuracy).
