"Major League Baseball announced on Wednesday the suspension of a Dominican prospect named Damian Arredondo for testing positive for steroids."
Many Dominican prospects have been suspended for performance-enhancing drugs in the last two years, but in a twist, this prospect’s real name is not Damian Arredondo.
In July, the Yankees signed a player they believed to be the 16-year-old Arredondo. DNA tests, however, showed that the player had lied about his identity and age. A spokesman for Major League Baseball declined to comment when asked if the player’s real identity was known.
As for the suspended player previously known as Damian Arredondo, he is a free agent apparently searching for a new team under his birth name."
