So much for that Julio Urias nonsense, huh?

Like a 19-year-old could pitch in the big leagues. Let's see him handle a razor first!

All right, Mr. Cranky Pants, that's enough from you. It was a miserable debut, to be sure -- one that sent him packing to Triple-A the very next day -- but for all of the Dodgers' alternatives, they went right back to Urias when Alex Wood landed on the DL Monday. So clearly, they're not the least bit disenchanted.

But are you?

I realize that, by now, you may be suffering from a full-blown case of prospect fatigue. To review ...

Jose Berrios ... busto!

Sean Manaea ... busto!

Blake Snell ... good, but short-lived, so for all practical purposes, busto!

Julio Urias ... at least so far, busto!

Everyone but Nomar Mazara (and maaaybe Michael Fulmer, not that he was especially hyped) ... busto!

They haven't been worth the chase to this point, and you may have had to make some difficult roster decisions just to keep up the chase.

But let's not lose sight of why we pursue them in the first place. It's not because we think they'll be studs right away but because we recognize they could be. It's a calculated risk -- your worst player (the one you drop) for a reasonable shot at a stud. So what's a "reasonable" shot? I couldn't begin to quantify it, but it's fair to say the odds are better than you'd normally find on the waiver wire.

Of course, if your worst player is flashing stud potential himself, well, that changes the odds a bit and perhaps makes the chase not worth it. You should know I'm not actually stashing all of my five on the verge. It wouldn't make sense in every league. It's more like ... if I have a roster spot to play with, that's a worthy use of it.

Five on the verge

(These are the prospects most worth stashing in redraft leagues.)

Trea Turner, 2B, Nationals

2015 stats: .322 BA (454 AB), 8 HR, 29 SB, .828 OPS

2016 stats: .314 BA (194 AB), 3 HR, 16 SB, .857 OPS

Well, we've made it. May 30 has come and gone, so now, even with the service time he accumulated late last season, the Nationals could promote Turner for the rest of 2016 without sacrificing a year of team control. So why haven't they yet? James Wagner of The Washington Post says they may not want to be so transparent about it. After all, Kris Bryant filed a grievance when the Cubs waited until such a date to promote him last year. In any case, it could be any day now, and the possibility of Charlie Blackmon-like production from a middle infielder makes Turner well worth stashing.

Jameson Taillon, SP, Pirates

2015 stats: Did not play -- injured

2016 stats: 4-2, 1.79 ERA, 0.80 WHIP, 55 1/3 IP, 5 BB, 54 K

Taillon picked up where he left off Sunday after missing a turn through the rotation, part of a concerted effort to preserve his innings. If that's not an indication he's in the Pirates plans this year, I don't know what is.

"In a perfect world, [he has] a full year in Triple-A," general manager Neal Huntington said a week ago. "It's probably not going to be a perfect world."

The need is well established by now. Juan Nicasio's dominant spring is a distant memory, and he again seems better suited for the bullpen. Because Taillon is throwing six and seven innings consistently, I suspect he'll have an easier transition than Julio Urias and Jose Berrios have.

Alex Bregman, SS, Astros

2015 stats: .294 BA (272 AB), 4 HR, .781 OPS, 29 BB, 30 K

2016 stats: .319 BA (144 AB), 12 HR, 1.059 OPS, 21 BB, 14 K

Bregman is a newcomer to this list, and seeing as he was only drafted last year, a callup would seem to be pretty aggressive. But the 22-year-old has forced the issue with his mastery of Double-A pitching, showing more power than expected and the kind of plate discipline that would lead you to believe he's simply too good for that level. Of course, the Astros are set at shortstop, but not third base, where he has begun to start occasionally. Hey, they promoted Lance McCullers straight from Double-A last year, and that worked out OK.

Tyler Glasnow, SP, Pirates

2015 stats: 7-5, 2.39 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, 109 1/3 IP, 43 BB, 136 K

2016 stats: 4-2, 2.25 ERA, 1.23 WHIP, 56 IP, 25 BB, 69 K

Glasnow's stuff certainly isn't in question, but his readiness may be given his recent inconsistencies. That WHIP is downright disappointing for a pitcher who's supposedly on the verge. If nothing else, Taillon has clearly leapfrogged Glasnow in the pecking order, and it's possible the elder prospect's consistency is tainting our perception of Glasnow. Blake Snell and Jose Berrios, two other candidates for this list, haven't exactly been lights out lately.

Joey Gallo, OF, Rangers

2015 stats: .240 BA (321 AB), 23 HR, .862 OPS, 51 BB, 139 K

2016 stats: .290 BA (93 AB), 9 HR, 1.093 OPS, 25 BB, 28 K

There isn't a clear candidate for this fifth spot, in my mind, so I'm going to stick with Gallo, who didn't get a real chance in his brief return to the big leagues last week but continues to get looks at first base, where the Rangers have underperformed, and is likely just one injury away at three different positions (third base and left field being the others). He's also 5 for 10 with a homer in three games since returning to Triple-A.

Five on the periphery

(These are some other prospects doing something of note.)

Dilson Herrera, 2B, Mets

2015 stats: .331 BA (338 AB), 11 HR, 13 SB, .899 OPS, 28 BB, 62 K

2016 stats: .280 BA (186 AB), 8 HR, .811 OPS, 12 BB, 33 K

Amid the hand-wringing over Lucas Duda's injury, one solution the Mets may consider is shifting Neil Walker to first base and calling up Herrera, who may be only 22 but has gotten enough looks in the majors the last two years to exhaust his rookie eligibility. It's not like his minor-league production is wanting for anything. This year's numbers are actually a little off pace, apart from the homers.

Alex Reyes, SP, Cardinals

2015 stats: 5-7, 2.49 ERA, 1.17 WHIP, 101 1/3 IP, 49 BB, 151 K

2016 stats: 0-0, 1.00 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, 9 IP, 5 BB, 15 K

You'd think the Cardinals would ease Reyes back into the mix after he completed his 50-game suspension for a positive marijuana test, but no, they sent him straight to Triple-A after he made only eight starts at Double-A last year. And he's the one who appears to be in midseason form. The suspension may actually work to the Cardinals' advantage by limiting the future ace's innings for the stretch run.

Willson Contreras, C, Cubs

2015 stats: .333 BA (454 AB), 8 HR, .891 OPS, 57 BB, 62 K

2016 stats: .331 BA (166 AB), 8 HR, .987 OPS, 23 BB, 26 K

Particularly now that Gary Sanchez is sidelined by a fractured thumb, Contreras is looking like the best catcher prospect in the minors and, at age 24, is probably still there just because the 35-15 Cubs can do whatever they want. Five home runs in his last seven games are sure to pique their interest, though. There are questions about his defense, but that didn't stop the Cubs from using Kyle Schwarber behind the plate late last season.

David Dahl, OF, Rockies

2015 stats: .266 BA (312 AB), 6 HR, 22 SB, .688 OPS, 11 BB, 81 K

2016 stats: .295 BA (183 AB), 11 HR, 13 SB, .957 OPS, 22 BB, 51 K

Dahl was always a highly rated prospect, but between the torn hamstring two years ago and the splenectomy last year, his production hadn't measured up until this year, when we're all coming to see just how special he is. And being in Double-A, he hasn't gotten a taste of the hitter-friendly Pacific Coast League yet. Those numbers are in no way a product of his environment. The Rockies are still in contention -- sort of -- but have every incentive to trade Carlos Gonzalez if and when that changes, not the least of which is Dahl.

Austin Voth, SP, Nationals

2015 stats: 6-7, 2.92 ERA, 1.11 WHIP, 157 1/3 IP, 40 BB, 148 K

2016 stats: 3-2, 2.81 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, 51 1/3 IP, 8 BB, 50 K

With Lucas Giolito struggling at Double-A, I'm thinking he won't be the first to get the call should an opening develop in the Nationals rotation. So who would? My guess is Voth, a middling prospect getting top-end results at Triple-A. His stuff is second-rate, but he has "a good feel for pitching," whatever that means, which is the same thing scouts used to say about Aaron Nola. It probably shows up in the walk rate. The Nationals already developed one such overachiever in Tanner Roark. Why not another?
