Allgeyer attended the University of Iowa and was drafted by the Toronto Blue Jays in the 12th round of the 2018 Major League Baseball draft, receiving a signing bonus of $125,000.[1] He was assigned to the Low-A Vancouver Canadians, where he spent the remainder of the season and posted a 2.73 earned run average (ERA) in 15 games. In 2019, Allgeyer played for the High-A Dunedin Blue Jays, pitching to a 3.95 ERA over 23 games and totaling 1181⁄3 innings.[2] He was named a Florida State League mid-season all-star as well as a MiLB.com organization all star for the 2019 campaign.[3] Allgeyer did not play in a game in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor league season because of the COVID-19 pandemic.[4]

On May 15, 2021, Allgeyer was selected to the 40-man roster and promoted to the major leagues for the first time.[5] He was optioned down to Triple-A on May 17 without making an appearance.[6] On July 2, Allgeyer was recalled to the active roster and made his major league debut with a perfect ninth inning against the Tampa Bay Rays.[7] Allgeyer was designated for assignment by Toronto on July 18.[8] Allgeyer was sent outright to the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons on July 27.[9]
