Scouting Report

2026

Scouting grades: Hit: 45 | Power: 40 | Run: 70 | Arm: 45 | Field: 50 | Overall: 40

There has never been a hitter who was drafted out of the Canadian province of Alberta and made it to the big leagues, though three have been selected in the past two years. The Blue Jays took Tim Piasentin in the fifth round last year, while two went in 2024: catcher Nathan Flewelling to the Rays in the third round and Hartman, the Braves’ final selection of the Draft in Round 20. Atlanta went over slot to sign him for around $340,000 and he provided some solid early returns with Single-A Augusta during his first full season while dealing with some hamstring issues.

Right now, Hartman’s calling card is his speed. He is one of the fastest players in the system, recording 30 ft/sec sprint speeds, which helped him steal 48 bases in 54 attempts in 2025. At the plate, Hartman is a left-handed hitter who has displayed solid contact skills overall. He limits chases out of the zone and draws walks, with an understanding that his job is to get on base, but he’s going to have to do a better job against spin as he advances.

At the outset, Hartman saw time in left field and at second base as the Braves tried to assess where he might fit best, but he was seeing all of his time in center field by the end of the year, with an arm that still needs work. If he can show he can do a little damage, tighten up some holes in his swing and stick in center, he could be a table-setting type of catalyst if everything clicks.
