This should be the first of a few awards that Hyun-Jin Ryu should receive for his performance on the mound this week. While technically, the Player of the Series award is just that, you cannot forget that Ryu pitched a complete game shutout last Tuesday.
Hope that Hyun-Jin Ryu enjoys NL Player of the Week honors as a consolation prize for his lost no-hitter: 17 innings, five hits, one walk, 15 strikeouts, 0.00 ERA.

In fact, May has been a pretty good month for Ryu.
