Mets Top Prospect Matthew Allan To Miss 2023 Season
2 years agoNew York Mets top pitching prospect Matthew Allan (elbow) reportedly underwent a revision UCL surgery and will miss the 2023 season. Allan had Tommy John surgery in 2021 and it appears that Allan needed a second operation. The 21-year-old has now undergone three elbow surgeries in his young career. Allan was ranked 10th on the Mets' top-30 list in 2022 and is expected to play a vital role in the rotation over the next couple of years. The right-hander hasn't played professionally since 2019, when he made five starts between the team's Rookie affiliate and the High-A Brooklyn Cyclones. Between the two teams, Allan molded a 2.61 ERA with 14 punchouts and a 1.45 WHIP. The former third-round pick is indefinitely out for the 2023 season and may even miss some time in 2024.
