Royals land Bubba Starling in record signing
Bubba Starling, a three-sport star from Gardner Edgerton, chose baseball with the Kansas City Royals over a Nebraska football path. The Royals secured a team record rookie signing bonus of 7.5 million over three years, signing moments before the 11 p.m. deadline. Starling, No. 5 overall pick last June, rose as a local legend with raw speed and power, drawing attention from major league scouts and college programs alike.
