High school shortstops will be favorite targets for teams at the top of next month's MLB Draft, with four potentially poised to be selected in the top 10.

The Detroit Tigers, though, could go in a different direction.

Baseball America released its fifth mock draft on Friday, and pegged Oklahoma high school right-hander Jackson Jobe for the Tigers at No. 3, following back-to-back prep shortstop selections from the Pittsburgh Pirates (Marcelo Mayer at No. 1) and Texas Rangers (Jordan Lawlar, No. 2).

This comes on the heels of MLB.
