Allen (3-0) did enough for the win Saturday versus the Athletics, allowing three runs on five hits and three walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

It was a bit surprising Allen was even sent back out for the sixth inning, as he needed 84 pitches to cover five frames and his fifth inning was particularly laborious. The lefty was finally pulled after yielding a one-out triple in the sixth, with that runner immediately scoring and getting charged to Allen. The Guardians southpaw holds a 5.06 ERA in five outings and has managed just one quality start but has still managed a spotless 3-0 record.

Allen allowed four runs on six hits and two walks over 5.2 innings against the Yankees in a no-decision Sunday. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

Allen worked through two scoreless frames before serving up a three-run tank to Aaron Judge in the third inning. Jose Trevino then tacked on a solo shot in the fourth. Allen gave up two home runs in his season debut but had turned in two straight starts without one before Sunday. He forced only seven whiffs, marking the third straight outing with a single-digit swinging strike total. Allen will carry a 5.06 ERA into his next outing, which is project to be against Oakland.

Allen didn't factor into the decision in Tuesday's 7-5 loss to the White Sox. He allowed five runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out four.

EDGE Analysis

Allen got off to a brutal start, allowing seven of the first eight batters to reach safely in the first inning, ultimately allowing five runs. However, the left-hander would settle down to blank the White Sox over his final three frames, allowing just two more hits, while the Guardians rallied to tie the game and get Allen off the hook. Still, it's a tough outing for Allen, who'd won his first two starts this season. His ERA is now up to 4.60 with a 1.34 WHIP and 13:4 K:BB through 15.2 innings in the young campaign. Allen will look to get back on track in his next start, tentatively lined up as a tough home matchup Sunday versus the Yankees.

Allen (2-0) earned the win Wednesday, allowing four hits and three walks over 6.2 scoreless innings against Seattle. He struck out six.

EDGE Analysis

Allen surrendered a leadoff single to the first batter he faced and allowed two baserunners in the opening frame, but he was able to pitch his way out of it before cruising through the next five innings. The lefty threw 20 first-pitch strikes and produced nine swings and misses on the afternoon to earn his second win of the 2024 campaign. Allen now sports a 2.31 ERA and 1.11 WHIP after two starts and will look to keep that momentum rolling when the Guardians take on the White Sox next week in Cleveland.

EDGE Analysis

Allen's trip to the injured list will put an early end to his rookie campaign. He'll finish the season with a 3.81 ERA and 1.40 WHIP alongside 119 strikeouts across 125.1 innings. Michael Kelly was recalled from Triple-A Columbus in a corresponding move.

Allen (7-8) took the loss Tuesday, giving up four runs on eight hits and two walks over three innings as the Guardians were downed 7-6 by the Royals. He struck out one.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie southpaw needed 68 pitches (43 strikes) to record just nine outs, with a two-run homer by MJ Melendez in the first inning setting the tone for the night. Allen hasn't lasted longer than five innings in any of his last five starts, posting a 6.14 ERA, 1.68 WHIP and 19:8 K:BB through 22 innings over that stretch, and given that the 25-year-old has already tossed a career-high 145.2 innings between Triple-A and the majors this season, he could be shut down and lose his rotation spot should both Shane Bieber (elbow) and Triston McKenzie (elbow) get activated from the IL for a final start or two before the end of the year.

Allen did not factor into the decision Wednesday, allowing one run on five hits and three walks over five innings against the Giants while striking out five.

EDGE Analysis

Allen got himself in a jam right out of the gate, surrendering back-to-back singles to open the first inning, which would eventually lead to one run coming across for San Francisco. However, the rookie left-hander allowed just two hits and two walks from the second inning on and was in line for his eighth win prior to the Giants' late comeback. Allen has now pitched five innings of one-run ball in back-to-back starts, lowering his season ERA to 3.60. On the downside, he's also issued multiple walks in each of those starts and in seven of his last nine outings overall.

Allen allowed a run on three hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings to earn the win Friday over the Angels.

EDGE Analysis

He was able to put in a good effort, though his pitch count got up quickly, and he was pulled after 90 pitches (55 strikes). The rookie southpaw is at a 3.68 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 113:43 K:BB through 117.1 innings over 22 starts this season. Allen is tentatively projected to make his next start at home versus the Rangers, though he could pitch in San Francisco if Xzavion Curry gets bumped from Cleveland's rotation next week.
