    Some managers thought Allen had the best arm in the Cape Cod League last summer, and he may have had the best arm in the Southeastern Conference this spring. He worked consistently at 92-94 mph and got as high as 97. He has a classic pitcher's body at 6-foot-4 and 195 pounds. He mixes in a curveball and splitter and varies his arm angle so much that it drives scouts nuts. The different arm slots make Allen deceptive but cost him control. He walked 50 in 80 regular season innings, falling behind in counts as hitters tagged him for a .283 average and a 6.44 ERA. If he pitches well in the NCAA regionals, he could sneak into the supplemental first round.
