Arroyo went yard in Tuesday's spring training win over the Reds, finishing with two hits, two runs scored, and two RBI.

Arroyo is coming off of his best minor league season since being drafted in the first round of the 2013 MLB draft. He slashed .304/.344/.459 with nine homers, 42 RBI, and five steals in 409 plate appearances for High-A San Jose. While he won't make the major league roster come April, a strong spring could propel him to either Double-A Richmond or Triple-A Sacramento. Arroyo - a natural middle infielder - projects to develop an offensive game similar to current Giants' second baseman Joe Panik, hitting for average with gap power and light speed. He got into Tuesday's game as a third baseman, and could be used at the hot corner when he eventually does make it to the majors. Arroyo is considered the Giants' top positional prospect, and currently ranks No. 62 in Baseball America's Top 100 list.
