DBU Baseball's Burl Carraway became the third highest draft pick in program history when he was selected in the second by the Chicago Cubs with the 51st overall pick of the 2020 Major League Draft.  Carraway, a junior left-handed relief pitcher from College Station, Texas, went 2-0 with five saves in eight appearances during a 2020 season that was cut short due to the COVID-19 global pandemic.

In his three seasons as a Patriot, Carraway totaled 11 saves, a mark that ranks fifth all-time in DBU's NCAA Division I era dating back to 2004.   Carraway compiled 89 strikeouts in 51.1 innings of work over the last three years and his 15.72 strikeouts per nine innings during the 2019 season is the second highest single-season average in the program's Division I era.

Rated one of the top prospects in college baseball, Carraway features a fastball topped out at 100 miles per hour in 2020 to go along with a sharp breaking ball.

During the summer of 2019, Carraway became the first player in school history to earn a roster spot on the U.S. Collegiate National Team and entered the 2020 season as a Preseason All-American.

Only Vic Black, who went with the 49th overall pick in 2009 and Jameson Hannah, who was selected as he 50th pick in 2018, were selected higher than Carraway in program history.

With the Cubs' selection of Carraway, the Patriots' left-handed reliever becomes the 57th player to be drafted from DBU during Dan Heefner's 13 seasons as the program's head baseball coach.
