Jake Allgeyer is a 22-year-old switch-hitting infielder from Channahon, Illinois. Allgeyer started his college career at Spoon River Community College where he shattered plenty of season and career records. With the video game type numbers, Allgeyer transferred to Western Illinois, he played in all 52 games and put together a .310 average, and led the team in home runs and RBIs. The Illinois native transferred one more time to Southern Illinois where he posted a career-high in home runs and OPS. After graduation, Allgeyer played in the MLB Draft League for the Mahoning Valley Scrappers, winning a player of the week award, and made his pro debut for the Joliet Slammers. With Joliet he was featured in 16 games, hitting his first professional home run, and drove in seven runs. 

“Jake is another highly evaluated player out of the MLBD in 2024.” Lamarr Rogers said. “He can play multiple INF positions as well as the OF. He’ll compete for a roster spot in mini-camp.”
