Opening-round projections by Callis, Mayo

The 2016 MLB Draft is here, and this is our final attempt to project the first round.
Catch the Draft tonight at 6 ET on MLB Network, MLB.com
We worked independently on these projections, and were surprised that in a Draft with so much uncertainty at the top that we matched each other on eight of the first nine selections. Our predictions and analysis are below, and full scouting reports for all of these players -- as well as a ranking of the top 200 Draft prospects -- can be found at MLBPipeline.com's Prospect Watch.
Note that the D-backs (who forfeited their first-round pick when they signed Zack Greinke), Cubs (John Lackey), Royals (Ian Kennedy) and Giants (Jeff Samardzija) do not appear in this projection because they do not pick in the first round.
