MLB: Round 4: David Newmann, LHP, Texas A&M

Baseball America ranked the 6-foot-2, 200-pound Newmann as the 106th-best prospect in the draft, the 58th-best pitcher and the 18th-best left-hander (12th collegiate). He currently has an 11-1 record with a 2.98 ERA in 17 starts for the 10th-ranked Aggies (48-17). He earned honorable mention All-Big 12 honors this season after missing all of 2006 with Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery. The Rays project him as someone who will pitch out of the bullpen. "He has a little bit of a herky-jerky motion that creates some deception," Harrison said.

2007 "What a Year for David"

After returning from Rehab David threw over 100 innings ending the season at 11-1 in 18 appearances leading the Aggies to NCAA Regionals hosted in College Station. Aggies won the regionals over Louisiana Lafayette.

Falling to Rice in Super Regional. "A&M starter David Newmann allowed one unearned run in six-complete innings. He struck out four and walked four."
