Allen (1-2) took the loss Tuesday, allowing four runs (three runs) on seven hits and a walk over 6 innings against the White Sox. He struck out four.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was cruising through his first six innings, allowing just one run on a Yasmani Grandal home run in the fifth. However, he surrendered three hits and a walk without recording an out in the seventh as he took his second loss of the season. It's been an up-and-down rookie campaign so far for Allen -- he's been hurt by a .350 BABIP against, though he's managed to maintain a solid 3.31 ERA with a 1.44 WHIP and 33:9 K:BB through six outings (37.2 innings).

Allen did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing one run on seven hits and one walk over 5.2 innings in a 3-1 win over the White Sox. He struck out five.
EDGE Analysis
Allen nearly had a disaster outing, as he loaded the bases in the second inning with no outs. But the lefty induced a pop up before two strikeouts to strand all three runners. Allen has flirted with danger recently, allowing seven or more hits in each of his last three starts. His 29 strikeouts in 26.2 innings have helped him keep a 3.04 ERA in his rookie season.

Allen yielded three runs on eight hits and two walks over 4.1 innings during Friday's loss to the Angels. He struck out five and did not factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Allen worked through three shutout frames before the Angels brought home three runs in a long fourth inning. It was the shortest outing of his young career and his first time allowing more than two runs. The 24-year-old now holds a 3.43 ERA and a 24:7 K:BB through 21 innings. Allen is lined up for a road start against the White Sox next week.

Allen allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out three over 5.2 innings Saturday versus the Twins. He did not factor in the decision.
EDGE Analysis
After two fairly impressive starts to begin his major-league career, Allen was a little less dominant Saturday. The damage against him came on a two-run home run by Max Kepler in the sixth inning. Over 16.2 innings, Allen still has a solid 2.70 ERA with a 1.26 WHIP and 19:5 K:BB. He'll look to keep up the good work next week versus the Angels.

Allen (1-1) took the loss Sunday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks over five innings against the Red Sox. He struck out eight.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was good again in his second MLB start. He allowed just two runs on Alex Verdugo's two-run single in the fifth inning. However, he took his first loss as the Guardians could only provide one supporting run. Allen has now struck out eight batters in each of his first two outings while issuing just three walks. The 24-year-old left-hander has a 1.50 ERA and 1.00 WHIP through his first 11 innings. Allen will likely make at least one more start for Cleveland with Triston McKenzie (shoulder) and Aaron Civale (oblique) still sidelined.

Allen is scheduled to start Sunday's game against the Red Sox at Fenway Park.
EDGE Analysis
Allen will get another turn through the Cleveland rotation after he dazzled in his MLB debut last Sunday against the Marlins, striking out eight while allowing only one earned run on five hits and one walk across six innings. Manager Terry Francona has said that both Allen and fellow rookie Tanner Bibee with stick around with the big club for at least a few more days, but Cleveland may have only one rotation spot available for the two young hurlers until at least one of Aaron Civale (oblique) or Triston McKenzie (shoulder) returns from the injured list. A poor showing in Boston could put Allen at risk of a demotion to Triple-A Columbus.

The Guardians plan to call up Allen from Triple-A Columbus to start Sunday's game versus the Marlins, Ryan Lewis of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
His call-up is pending on the weather, as Sunday's game could be at risk of postponement much like Friday's series opener with Miami. Allen, 24, is off to a great start at Columbus, posting a 1.26 ERA and 20:5 K:BB over 14.1 innings covering three starts. With Triston McKenzie (shoulder) and Aaron Civale (oblique) on the shelf and Cal Quantrill (leg) also banged up, Allen could have a chance to stick around a while if he pitches well in his MLB debut.

Allen was reassigned to the Guardians' minor-league camp Sunday, Mandy Bell of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was with the big-league club to open spring training but unsurprisingly won't make the Opening Day roster. He earned a mid-season promotion to Triple-A Columbus last year but struggled at the highest level of the minors with a 6.49 ERA, 1.57 WHIP and 73:29 K:BB over 59.1 innings.
