The Houston Astros selected him in the ninth round, 277th overall, of the 2016 MLB draft.[1] He made his professional debut with the Tri-City ValleyCats, posting a 2.36 earned run average (ERA) in 14 appearances.

In 2017, Hartman split the season between the High-A Buies Creek Astros and the Single-A Quad Cities River Bandits, recording a cumulative 5–7 record and 3.64 ERA in 25 games between the two teams. The following year, Hartman pitched for the Double-A Corpus Christi Hooks, logging an 11–4 record and 2.69 ERA with 143 strikeouts in 120+23 innings pitched. In 2019, Hartman played for the Triple-A Round Rock Express, registering a 6–7 record and 5.84 ERA in 25 appearances.[2]

Hartman did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] He was assigned to the Triple-A Sugar Land Skeeters to begin the 2021 season, where he recorded a 2–2 record and 3.98 ERA with 49 strikeouts in 40+23 innings pitched.

On June 30, 2021, Hartman was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[4] He made his MLB debut that day, pitching in relief against the Baltimore Orioles.
