Dunn (shoulder) to have season-ending surgery

DENVER -- Rockies reliever Mike Dunn's season is officially done. The left-hander was trying to work his way back from a second trip to the disabled list when the persistent pain in his left shoulder (acromioclavicular joint inflammation) caused the Rockies to shut him down for the season. He is consulting with team doctors to schedule surgery.

"Things didn't go well," Dunn said of his rehab before Monday's series opener with the Giants. "I had a couple setbacks. After my second outing, I had to get another cortisone injection. And then that didn't hold up either, so we're shutting it down for the year, and the next option's pretty much surgery.
