    Memphis RHP Derek Hankins is the Tiger's top pro prospect on the mound. Hankins used a plus curveball, solid 88-91 mph fastball and a changeup for which he's shown enough feel to strike out 17 against Murray State early in the season. Scouts project more velocity to come from his 6-foot-3, 185-pound body.
