Scouting the 2019 Draft: Matthew Allan

Matthew Allan, RHP, HS.  DOB:  4/17/2001.  6'3", 210 lbs.

Allan is a sturdy looking RHP from the Florida HS ranks.  He made a name for himself on the showcase circuit this summer by hitting 97 MPH with his FB. He also sport a promising curveball and changeup.  His size and strength allow him to bring the heater without the appearance of much effort.  Only negative is there doesn't appear to be much, if any, physical projection, which may not be that much of a negative since he's plenty big and strong enough now.  MLB Pipeline has him ranked as their #17 draft prospect.  I wouldn't put him any higher than that.
