06.19.18
Athletic 5-foot-11, 165-pound frame with long levers.  Ran a 7.03 laser-timed 60 but his reads, instincts, and angles help him play even quicker in the infield and on the bases. Popped an 85 mph exit velo off the tee. At the plate he hits from the right-side in an athletic stance with rhythm and his hands in a high set-up, he is smooth in loading his hands back and some weight into his backside and has a short early stride.  He maintains balance throughout the swing, and handles the bat well. In BP, he has a smooth approach and showed the ability to consistently barrel up the baseball all over the field with gap-to-gap power. He has smooth actions from the shortstop position, and projects to stay in the middle of the field with his athleticism, footwork, and arm strength.  He has soft hands and fields the ball out in front of his body with a solid glove angle working through the baseball. He played himself into hops well with his feet, and was accurate from different arm angles at 81 mph.

5-foot-11, 163-pound, lean, athletic frame. Bartolacci is an athletic, quick-twitch player with a bounce in his step on the infield. A right-handed hitter, he has a balanced setup, simple load, loose hands, short stride, level path, line-drive approach with fluid rhythm and an exit velocity of 88 mph. At shortstop, Bartolacci moves with quick footwork and a bounce in his step. Soft hands with good glove action, especially to his backhand. Quick exchange into a ¾ slot with a short, loose arm stroke at 83 mph across the infield with a quick release and accuracy. Athletic player on the run, projects to stay in the middle of the field. Ran a 7.01 60-yard dash.
A two-way player and right-handed pitcher, Bartolacci has smooth rhythm and tempo in a balanced, drop-and-drive delivery, lands square with an athletic finish. Works from a high-¾ slot with a loose arm stroke from back to front. Fastball for strikes at 80-84 mph, flashes sink to arm side. Curveball has 11/5 shape with gradual depth at 68-72 mph. Throws his changeup with fastball arm speed at 73 mph.

5-foot-10, 145-pound, lean, athletic frame. The right-handed hitter starts from an athletic setup in the box, smooth load and trigger of the hands as he pushes back. Short stride, fluid rhythm, good barrel awareness, top hand punch produces a short, level path, line drive approach, hard contact and loose finish. Exit velocity of 88 mph. At shortstop, Bartolacci has soft hands with a clean exchange as he gathers, plays through the ball with rhythm. Can throw from different slots accurately at 83 mph across the diamond. Nice two-handed run-through play. All-in-all, Bartolacci is an athletic, projectable middle infielder with a bright future.
