This week’s Padres Player of the Week goes to:

Rymer Liriano. Admittedly based mostly on that monster home run he hit on Wednesday, but the rookie all in all had a good first week. Excited what he can do the rest of the way, as so far as the “bigness” of the major leagues doesn’t seem to phase him in the least.
