Question really isn't whether he is JV or not or 10th grade or 12th.
How long has he been training? I'm in PA and we haven't had a game yet. I know my son tells me when he's catching pitchers and I was surprised they weren't doing more to prep pitchers. So for us I would say it's a lot cause I know the limited throwing they have been doing.
There's schools in GA that are apparently 7-8 + games into it. Warmer climate states get started a ton earlier than us.
At face value it can seem like a lot early but details really do matter.
IMO.
