Eric Hartman
Hitting scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Hartman's 2026 breakout, including a major jump in home-run production and continued stolen-base value, gives him a credible path from late-round find to major-league prospect. The speed and outfield athleticism create a useful floor, while the power surge raises the ceiling if it proves sustainable against upper-level pitching. Strikeout risk and limited public detail on his swing decisions keep an everyday projection guarded; he will need to preserve his on-base skills and make enough contact for the power to play. A second-division center fielder is a reasonable upside outcome, with a reserve or up-down role more likely if contact quality stalls.
