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.
