Rockies Release Logan Allen

By Mark Polishuk | July 2, 2023 at 5:50pm CDT

The Rockies have released southpaw Logan Allen, MLB.com’s Mark Feinsand reports (Twitter link).  Allen signed a minor league deal with Colorado last August, but hasn’t yet seen any time on the Rockies’ MLB roster.

Not to be confused with current Guardians left-hander Logan T. Allen (born in 1998), the elder Allen also formerly pitched for Cleveland as well as San Diego and Baltimore from 2019-22.  Allen was a former top-100 prospect who was involved in two significant trades during his career — he was one of four prospects sent by the Red Sox to the Padres in the Craig Kimbrel deal in 2015, and he was part of the big three-team swap between San Diego, Cleveland, and Cincinnati at the 2019 trade deadline.

Allen has tossed 96 1/3 innings at the Major League level, and posted only a 5.89 ERA and a very low 15.5% strikeout rate.  The results haven’t been any better at Triple-A, as the lefty has a 6.35 ERA over 253 2/3 frames at the top minor league level.  This includes a 7.20 ERA over 45 innings with Triple-A Albuquerque this season, as Allen has only a 22.2% strikeout rate and a high 12.4% walk rate.

Even with the caveat that pitching in the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League is no easy feat, Allen’s lack of results at Triple-A aren’t promising.  Still only 26 years old, his past track record could very well get him another look with another team on a minor league contract.  Speculatively, Allen might seem like a good candidate to pitch overseas, as working in an international league might help him get his career on track.

      Wouldn’t say that. I, for 1 interested in whatever happened to this particular Logan Allen.

      Scout who signed him, if remember correctly thought he was a future jon lester at the time.

      Boston had such a tough time for 20y developing starters and this is is 2nd, big hype starter that was traded to the Pad’s and then fell off the map. 100mph strike throwing Anderson Espinoza being the other. few injuries with him tho along the way.
