Frederick William Newman (February 21, 1942 – June 24, 1987) was an American professional baseball player, a right-handed pitcher who appeared in 108 games pitched, 93 as a starter, over six seasons (1962–1967) for the Los Angeles/California Angels.

The 6 ft 3 in (1.91 m), 180 lb (82 kg) Newman, a native of Boston, Massachusetts, was originally signed by the Red Sox as an amateur free agent after he graduated from neighboring Brookline High School in 1960.

Newman spent that season at the Class D level in the New York–Penn League, winning only four of 14 decisions with an earned run average of 4.08, and the Red Sox left the 18-year-old off their protected list for the 1960 Major League Baseball expansion draft.

In his third minor league season, with the Class C San Jose Bees in 1962, Newman compiled a 15–1 (.938) record, with a low 1.85 ERA.

In the Majors, Newman recorded 254 strikeouts and 154 bases on balls, allowing 589 hits, in 610 innings pitched.
