Josh Hartle
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Given the track record of success in High-A and roughly average strikeout and walk rates, he projects as a solid back-end starter with a chance to sneak into mid-rotation if command and secondary feel continue to tighten. Ceiling is driven by his left-handedness, usable four-pitch mix, and ability to execute a game plan more than by bat-missing stuff. Floor is a long reliever or up-and-down depth arm if upper-minors hitters prove able to sit on his fastball or force him into the zone. To reach a #4 starter outcome, he will need to sustain strike throwing, refine fastball shape, and keep the changeup and breaker reliably ahead of hitters.
