Matt Payne
Director of Scouting, PBR of NC

PBR continues to be a go-to source of information for college coaches and pro scouts. With advanced analytics and video on a players profile page, it allows them to get a feel for a prospects ability and track their progress. In an unprecedented year where college coaches were not allowed on the road to recruit PBR was a valuable resource for them to keep recruiting. There were over 10 million player profile views during 2020 on the PBR site. We will begin to highlight the the top ten most viewed player profiles in the state of North Carolina.

Josh Hartle has the 2nd most viewed profile of 2020 in North Carolina. Hartle ranks as the top left hand pitcher in the country. He has advanced feel for his low 90s fastball and there is plenty of projection left in his 6-foot-5 frame.

Scouting Report

A known commodity and a top ranked lefty entering the summer, Hartle continued to perform in big situations, positioning himself at the top of draft boards. A Wake Forest recruit, Hartle has worked 90-92 with advanced feel. The breaking ball and changeup both grade as average to better pitches. At 6-foot-5, 200 pounds, the frame is still maturing and will continue to add strength in the coming years. Based on this summer, there will be a lot of eyes on him between now and next June. Based on his history, he will continue to develop and perform with eyes on him.
