First look at the 6-foot-3, 185-pounder, but Bartley looks to be an impact player on both sides. Athletic, lean frame with great projection. Offensively, tall, slightly open setup with controlled tempo. Great bat speed (Avg: 73.6 mph via Blast) and rotational acceleration to go with line drive/gap-to-gap power. Good runner (7.18) and arm strength from the OF (86 mph). On the bump, quick, loose arm that works up to high 3/4 slot. Good downhill plane on FB at 81-84, T85 with some spin (2255 rpm max; 2147 rpm avg). Threw FB with intent, attacking the zone. Struggled locating SL at 70-73, but shows nice 11/5 action and some future projection. Flashed CH at 74-77 as third offering with decent deception.
