Jesus Hubert Christ. Just for reference, I want to bring up some similar Royals salaries:

Jose Guillen: $24 million over the next two years  
Coco Crisp: $5.75m in '09, $8m in '10

I’m not a huge Abreu fan, but I’d kill to have Dunn on my team, especially for less than what Guillen’s getting. Unbelievable.
