My Take
Allen is exactly the type I gravitate toward: a closer, the man asked to record the final outs with the game on the line. Out of Orlando and the University of Central Florida, he anchored Cleveland's bullpen for years before finishing with the Angels in 2019, and surviving that long in the ninth inning says everything about his temperament. Closing is a brutal, thankless job where one bad pitch erases a great night, yet he was trusted with it again and again. That repeated faith from his managers is the real measure of him, and I think it's a career Florida should be proud of.
