SI.com's Melissa Segura reports the New York Yankees have nullified their signing of 16-year-old SS Damian Arredondo because that's not his real name, and he's older than 16. According to a new Major League Baseball rule, a player found to have used a fraudulent identity or to have misrepresented his age cannot sign with another club for one year.
