Allen, a left-handed reliever, has appeared in parts of five major league seasons with the San Diego Padres (2019), Cleveland Guardians (2019-22), Baltimore Orioles (2022) and Arizona Diamondbacks (2024).

A former Boston Red Sox draft pick (eighth round, 2015), Allen lingered on the free agent market after his minor league contract with the D-Backs expired in November 2024. He did not land a contract in North America last year.

Allen signed with the NC Dinos of the Korean Baseball Organization. He appeared in 32 games (31 starts) and went 7-12 with a 4.53 ERA last season.

In two games for Canada at the WBC, Allen allowed four hits and one run in 3.1 innings out of the bullpen.

“Thank you @baseballcanada for an experience of a lifetime,” Allen wrote on Instagram after the tournament. “Getting to wear the 🍁 is something my family and I will cherish forever. Merci les fans, we will be back! 🇨🇦”

As it turned out, Allen was back in affiliated baseball long before the next WBC rolled around.
