Guy Boston, although historically a believer in Logan Allen, has recently expressed skepticism about Allen's capability. Nevertheless, this matchup against a weak White Sox offense sets up favorably due to Allen's high use of change-ups, which happen to be among the few pitches White Sox hitters handle well. While Allen has faced inconsistency, Boston highlighted that today's opponent might have difficulty capitalizing on Allen's weaknesses given their limited offensive capability. Though Boston prefers backing Sean Burke on the other side betting-wise, he still acknowledges Allen's advantageous situation based purely on pitch repertoire versus White Sox hitters, hinting at a low-scoring first five innings.
