The Detroit Tigers have a clear type, and they're not afraid to show it. In the latest Baseball America Mock Draft 3.0, the Tigers are projected to select high school outfielder Trevor Condon with the 22nd overall pick—and it's a match that feels almost inevitable.

Condon, a center fielder from Georgia, checks all the boxes that Scott Harris and his scouting team have come to favor over their three drafts at the helm: athleticism, defensive versatility, and elite contact skills. At just 5-foot-9 and 175 pounds, he's not the biggest player on the board, but his plus speed and well-rounded game make him a natural fit for a Tigers organization that loves high-upside prep players.

While Condon's size and unorthodox swing have raised some eyebrows, his performance this spring has been impossible to ignore. Baseball America calls him "one of the most popular" players in the second tier of high school draft prospects, thanks to a consistent left-handed stroke that sprays line drives to all fields. He's been piling up extra-base hits at an impressive clip, fueling dreams of a future leadoff hitter who can set the table for a big league lineup.

What's really turning heads, though, is the physical development Condon has shown over the past six months. According to a December report from Prep Baseball Report, his arm strength now sits at an above-average 95 mph from the outfield. Even more telling: his max exit velocity has jumped from under 100 mph to 106.2—a significant leap for a teenager who wasn't previously viewed as a future power threat. For a Tigers team that has shown confidence in helping underpowered players unlock their physical potential, that kind of growth is exactly what they're looking for.

If Detroit locks in on Condon come draft day, it won't be a surprise to anyone who's been watching their strategy unfold. It's another bet on athleticism, contact, and untapped power—a formula that's becoming the Tigers' trademark.
