    KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)   A source tells The Associated Press that high school outfielder Bubba Starling and the Kansas City Royals agreed late Monday night to a minor league contract with a $7.5 million signing bonus.  The signing bonus is payable over three years because Starling is a two-sport athlete.  There was some question whether he would sign with the Royals before the deadline or play quarterback for Nebraska, where he had received a scholarship offer.  Starling was the fifth overall pick out of Gardner, Kan., a short drive south of Kansas City.  The 18-year-old was widely considered the best high school prospect in the June draft.
