Prospect Potent Potables - 5/29

• Major League Baseball cleared Yorman Rodriguez's name and any controversy surrounding his correct identity, reports Ben Badler of Baseball America.  Rodriguez is in extended spring training with the Reds.
• Pat Venditte is still in the Florida State League, but Jack Moore of FanGraphs.com makes a case for the Yankees' promoting the switch-pitcher to Double-A.
• Brewers' prospect Cutter Dykstra is attempting to learn how to play second base while also dealing with the off-the-field distractions surrounding his father, notes Tom Haudricourt for Baseball America.
• Ian Krol is trying to make a name for himself in the A's organization with his ability to change speeds and despite an underwhelming arsenal of pitches, reports Matthew Linder of MLB.com.
• Phillippe Valiquette can throw 100-mph with his left arm, reports Dave Cameron of FanGraphs.com, but can't do much else at this point.
• Hector Noesi is one of the few legitimate pitching prospects in the Yankees' organization, and Josh Norris of The Trentonian has a frame-by-frame look at Noesi's mechanics on his blog, which is pretty cool if you scroll down at the right speed.  Noesi is a rare power pitcher with superb control, reports George King for Baseball America.
• Kyle Skipworth still has yet to produce like the Marlins had hoped, but he's improving after a dismal 2009 campaign, and learning how to be a professional hitter and catcher is a difficult task, Bill Ballew reminds us on MLB.com.
• Josh Donaldson is not satisfied with his brief stint in the majors earlier this season and is out to prove he has the defensive chops to be an every day catcher, says Casey Tefertiller for Baseball America.
