Passan reporting Allen’s demands where too high for the Cubs.

Yes, Passan says Cubs were “extremely close” to taking Allan. Can’t get too much closer than that.

Passan:

The Chicago Cubs were indeed extremely close to taking HS right-hander Matthew Allan, but signability concerns pushed them to Fresno State right-hander Ryan Jensen, sources tell ESPN.
