The NC Dinos awarded Logan Allen (27) the maximum amount of 1 million dollars for a new foreign pitcher. Allen had 5 wins and 11 losses and an earned run average of 5.79 in 45 games in the Major League. He played for the Arizona Diamondbacks this season, following the San Diego Padres, the Cleveland Guardians and the Baltimore Orioles.
For foreign ace players in the KBO League these days, career in the Major League is almost a basic option. Logan is not a good example just by looking at his specs. However, he is a new ace taken by NC, which is famous for having good eye for foreign players. He is a left-hander who throws balls around 150 kilometers, commands various breaking balls, and good game management ability.먹튀검증
Allen recently greeted his fans through NC's official YouTube channel. He said, "I am from Scottsdale, Arizona. I will play for the NC Dinos in the 2025 season. I am very happy to be here in Korea, and I have heard a lot of good things about the KBO League from many people including Matt Davidson and Kyle Hart."
Allen continued, "I'm ready to jump into Korean culture and adapt, and I'm happy to join a club that always wins. I've already been a fan of the KBO League, and my friends Mel Rojas Jr. (KT Wiz), Merrill Kelly (Arizona Diamondbacks), Eric Thames, and Kyle Hart especially told me great things. I'm also a fan of Park Min-woo, NC's outstanding second baseman. I can't wait to play with him as soon as possible."
He also introduced himself. Allen said, "To tell you a little bit about me, I'm a ball control type finesse pitcher, and I have six different pitches. There are four-seam, sinker, curveball, slider, cutter, and crystal ball Vulcan split change-up. I desperately hope to become the KBO League champion in the 2025 season, and I will work hard to become one of the best pitchers in the KBO League. I can't wait to meet my fans and enjoy Korea's beautiful country. Thank you for welcoming me warmly. GO Dinos."
He can fly 150 kilometers, but in the U.S., he cannot be called a fastball pitcher with 150 kilometers, which is why he introduced himself as Pines pitcher. He has a virtue, however. He has a total of 739 strikeouts and 300 pitches in the Minor League.
Statcast said that the ratio of pitches he plays is relatively uniform. In the Major League this season, he only used 1.3 percent of curves, and recorded 22.1 percent for cutters, 20.9 percent for sweepers, 20.6 percent for splitters, 18.7 percent for four-seam and 16.4 percent for sinkers. Notably, the hit rate of cutters, sweepers, and splitters was 0.263, 0.231, and 0.138.
Coach Lee Ho-joon said, "If Kyle Hart stays, it will be his inauguration present." However, Hart has left, and it would be best if Allen becomes the ace and the gift of coach Lee Ho-joon. If he adapts well to domestic ABS, he will become a very tricky pitcher.
