Prospect Arroyo soaking up big league advice

Arroyo, the Giants' top prospect (he's ranked 89th overall in MLBPipeline.com's Top 100), rules nobody out in his quest for knowledge.

The 21-year-old can consult the likes of Buster Posey, Madison Bumgarner or Brandon Belt to discuss the challenges of being a prized Giants farmhand expected to take his final few steps toward a big league pedestal.

But Arroyo found significance in talking to catcher Andrew Susac and infielder Matt Duffy, who are no longer in the organization. Arroyo met the former while he was rehabilitating an injury in 2013 and the latter when both were at a Giants conditioning camp later that year.
