Logan Allen News
Cleveland Guardians left-hander Logan Allen is enduring a rough spring as he looks to build upon what was a strong debut in the 2023 season. The 25-year-old was rocked for six earned runs on eight hits, including a pair of homers, and two walks against three strikeouts in his final spring tune-up against the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday, elevating his spring ERA to 5.50 across five starts and 18 innings of work. However, Allen enjoyed an impressive rookie season that saw him work to a 3.81 ERA across 24 starts in the 2023 season, although his 4.49 SIERA suggests he wasn't quite as effective as his surface ERA might suggest. He has a track record of putting up big strikeout numbers in his minor-league career but he only posted an 18.2% K% this spring, suggesting it may take some time for him to generate consistent punchouts at the big-league level.
The Arizona Diamondbacks signed free-agent left-hander Logan Allen to a minor-league deal on Tuesday. The deal includes an invitation to major-league spring training. Allen didn't surface at all in the big leagues in 2023, instead pitching for the Triple-A affiliates with the Colorado Rockies and Seattle Mariners, where he went 6-2 with a 5.77 ERA, 1.74 WHIP, 56 walks and 99 strikeouts in 103 innings pitched over his 38 appearances (10 starts). The 26-year-old southpaw will be looking to get back in the majors in a relief role in 2024, but he'll most likely start the year at Triple-A Reno. In Allen's four major-league campaigns with the San Diego Padres, Cleveland Guardians and Baltimore Orioles, he's posted a 5.89 ERA (5.62 FIP) and 1.66 WHIP while striking out only 15.5 percent of the batters he faced.
Cleveland Guardians pitcher Logan Allen will look to take down a division rival Tuesday night when he takes on the Kansas City Royals on the road. The left-hander has enjoyed a solid rookie season that includes a 3.60 ERA, 4.08 FIP, 4.43 SIERA, and a 13.8% K-BB% across 23 starts on the season. He has been excellent his last two times out, combining to allow just two earned runs across 10 innings while striking out 11 in that time, albeit with five walks as well. Allen has been particularly strong on the road this season where he sports a 3.23 ERA, 3.49 FIP, and a 25% K% in 61 1/3 innings versus a 3.98 ERA, 4.67 FIP, and a 19.8% K% across 61 innings at home. He has pitched 10 2/3 innings of four-run ball against the Royals across two starts this season.

Logan Allen doesn't have overpowering stuff, but that didn't stop him from having a very productive rookie campaign. In 24 starts (125.1 IP), Logan had a 7-8 W-L record, 3.81 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 119 Ks. Allen has had trouble with his control over the last two years. He had a 10.6% BB% in Triple-A (80.0 IP) and that manifested in the Majors with an 8.9% BB% last year. That contributed to an elevated WHIP, but so too did a .314 BABIP which should maintain in 2024. With a fastball that averaged 91.4 MPH, Allen needs to be more careful with his location which will likely ensure his walk-rate is never better than average. After striking out 346 batters in 265.1 IP, Allen may have room to improve his 22.2% K% from last year, increasing his fantasy value. Allen did have a 4.28 xFIP and 4.49 SIERA which suggests we see regression in his ERA moving forward. That will be linked to whether or not Allen can get more strikeouts and his projections have him with a ~4.20 ERA. Assuming Allen can make improvements in his sophomore campaign, there's potential to be a top-50 starting pitcher in 2024.
