Report: Mets agree to terms with draft pick Matthew Allan

It appears Matthew Allan will turn pro instead of going to college.

The New York Mets have agreed to sign the prized right-hander after drafting him in the third round of the 2019 MLB draft, according to MLB Network's Jon Heyman.

Terms of the deal are not known. His pick value was $667,900.

Allan, projected by MLB Pipeline to be a first-round selection, dropped to the Mets with the No. 89 overall pick due to signability issues; he was apparently committed to attending Florida.

The 18-year-old is a big, strong, physical pitcher with a fastball that touches 97 mph. He tossed a perfect high school game in May, striking out 17 batters.
