Jaylon Thompson writes about improved confidence from Alec Marsh.

“He went from a guy that was in Double-A to making his debut and making adjustments at the major-league level,” Sweeney said. “Then, (he’s been) totally confident in every situation. … I’m completely impressed with what he has done.”

Marsh pitched four innings against the Chicago Cubs on Saturday. He threw 59 pitches (38 strikes) and allowed two earned runs in relief. This spring, Marsh has a 1.93 ERA and 17 strikeouts in 14 innings pitched.

“It’s good to have that confidence going in that things we are working on are working for sure,” Marsh said.
