Arroyo being moved to 3rd full time this next season in the minors. I am calling it now, he will be every day 3rd baseman starting in June. They will give him a couple months in the minors to get used to 3rd full time and he will be called up.

They do not. He won't make the team. Can only play short and whomever is extra infielder needs to play multiple spots. This to me is someone in the organization owed his agent a favor. He will get some spring training at bats as audition for another team and will be gone first cuts.

minor league experiment josh johnson retires at 32.

gregor blanco signs with the sorry, no account dbags.

Beede cracked Keith Laws top 100 prospects at number 62. Giants never have someone that high in the list. Law is releasing 20 a day and I have not seen Arroyo yet. We might have a top 50 guy which would be a first I think since Posey.

Laws write up on Beede:
After a very disappointing 2015 season in which Beede tried to throw more sinkers (at the Giants’ suggestion) and seemed to lose his fastball, the former Vanderbilt ace put everything back together for a big bounce-back year that restored his first-round luster and probably put him on track for a 2017 call-up.

Beede was back to throwing 92-95 mph on his four-seamer in 2016, with the full repertoire he showed in college, including a curveball that’s now his out pitch. His fastball command is probably still his main weakness (that or the lack of life on his four-seamer), but he was better at pitching in and out than he had been before, and he has added a cutter that might give him a fifth weapon along with the change, curve and both fastballs. Beede’s command still needs work, but his control made a huge leap forward last year, which I think is more a result of his renewed confidence than any physical issue throwing strikes.

He might reach the majors on the quality of his stuff before he’s fully developed as a pitcher, but by his late 20s, I expect him to at least be a solid-average big league starter. There are a lot of ways he could become a No. 2, depending on his command and the development of that new cutter.
