A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.

Profile - Stocky, 6-foot, 195 pounder. Bat is best tool and holds power potential. 104-plus exit allows for present abv avg power grades, hit the furthest batted ball of the event per Trackman (404 feet). Present plus bat speed with 79 mph avg & flashed higher. He is a tick above average runner (6.90) with fringe average arm strength (83 across). Profiles as bat-first 2B/3B.
Actions - Offense: Starts tall & relaxed. Toe tap stride retracts early in the operation and he counterbalances a heavy forward move with a handsy, lower load. Aggressive intent w flatter path and heaviness to the barrel. Best balls are struck pull-side. Defense: Fundamental actions w solid glove to hand. Can quick release.
Summation: The raw strength in the box is what I like most about Hartford. He turns the barrel w tremendous bat speed for the age with big impacts presently. Hartford was an unofficial "MVP" of our Fall State Games and should continue to see his name rise on our list as he gears up for a big junior spring for Penn. He is more athletic than the stocky frame suggests with solid actions on the dirt.

Hartford walked away as an "MVP" candidate after collecting three hits during gameplay, including an extra-base hit. None of his hits came cheap, reaffirming the 100-plus exit velocity that he posted during batting practice. The swing works on a looser, level plane with his best balls struck to the pull-side.
