Giants GM Bobby Evans says it won't be Arroyo. Club could call up Williamson and rely on Gillaspie/Peña at 3B.

Duffy, 25, went for an MRI Monday in Pittsburgh. He’s slashing .253/.313/.358 this season with four home runs and 21 RBI.
The Giants also had a scare with Buster Posey in the ninth inning of Monday’s 1-0 loss to the Pirates. He grabbed at his leg running up the first base line. San Francisco has already seen Hunter Pence, Angel Pagan and Matt Cain suffer hamstring injuries and that was the initial speculation with Posey, but the Giants’ catcher claims all is well.
Posey said he had a cramp. He's fine. Didn't even mention it to trainer. #sfgiants
