Recently, I had the opportunity to speak with Pittsburgh Pirates First Round draft pick Kevin Newman. Before we get into the details of the interview, let me give you some background information on Kevin.
Co-Editor Tyler Waite told you in his draft day one analysis a little about Kevin Newman:
“19th Pick – SS Kevin Newman, University of Arizona Kevin Newman just finished his junior year at the University of Arizona. Newman is 6’1″ and 180 pounds and bats and throws right-handed. This past season for Arizona, Newman batted .370/.426/.489 with two home runs, 36 RBIs, 20 walks, and 15 strikeouts in 227 at-bats.
