NOVA Fall Review

Gartrell is 6-3 with an athletic frame that has some projection left to it. He hits from the right side from a balanced athletic stance, strides on line, smooth load back, has quiet relaxed rhythm to his swing, hips rotate completely, he maintains good balance during his swing. Short to ball, uphill path with extension through the ball and some strength at contact, showed good approach working middle of the field, exit velocity was 81. At first base, gets body behind the ball and fields with average hands, throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, position velocity was 71.
