Screw Padilla - Dunn should have gotten the start.  Riggleman, don't let the door hit you.

Just to answer the questions about Dunn's off day: Yes, Dunn requested the day off. Jim Riggleman gave him the option to play, but Dunn didn't feel the need -- even within two homers of the 40 milestone. "I'm accommodating him," Riggleman said. "If he wanted to play today he'd be in there. But he's -- you know, I think it's somewhat of a statement by Adam that it's not about his numbers. He knows there's guys here, the Padillas and Morses of the world, who have been working their tails off also who never get a chance to play in a ballgame."
