was optioned to Triple-A, and the team followed that up with an announcement thattouched on why the organization felt now was the best time to option Allen.“I think it’s an opportunity for Logan to go down and get some consistency back. You know, we’ve seen it where he’ll have one outing where he’s out there, he’s efficient, filling up the strike zone, and he goes six innings.

Vogt revealed that he’s already been working on some delivery adjustments when he was with the big league team, and Allen will now get an opportunity to continue to work on that in a low-stakes setting. “So, with Logan, he’s been working really hard on some delivery, some different things that are going to help him with that consisntey. We just felt like that this a time for you to go down, take a deep breath, continue to work on those things, and continue being the best version of you.”
