Eric Duncan (baseball)
Eric Anthony Duncan (born December 7, 1984) is an American former professional baseball second baseman and coach who currently serves as the major league field coordinator for the Toronto Blue Jays of Major League Baseball (MLB). Considered an excellent high school baseball player, Duncan was chosen by the New York Yankees in the first round of the 2003 MLB draft, and became one of the best prospects in baseball. However, injuries and ineffectiveness in minor league baseball prevented Duncan from reaching MLB.
Duncan attended Seton Hall Preparatory School in West Orange, New Jersey. He batted .535 with 10 home runs and 52 runs batted in (RBIs) in his senior year. He committed to attend Louisiana State University (LSU) to play college baseball for the LSU Tigers.
The New York Yankees selected Duncan in the first round, with the 27th overall selection, of the 2003 Major League Baseball draft. Prior to the 2005 season, Baseball America named Duncan the Yankees' 2005 top prospect, and the 36th best prospect in baseball. Prior to the 2006 season, Baseball America ranked him the 86th best prospect in baseball.
Duncan was drafted as a third baseman, but was converted into a first baseman while in the Yankee organization, due to the long-term contract of Yankee Alex Rodriguez. However, Duncan began to struggle when he reached Triple-A.
Duncan spent the 2009 season with the Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, he played in 95 games and batted .204/.242/.285 with four home runs and 24 RBI. He elected free agency following the season on November 9, 2009.
On December 12, 2009, Duncan signed a minor league contract with the Atlanta Braves organization. Duncan spent the 2010 season with the Double-A Mississippi Braves.
On March 12, 2011, Duncan signed a minor league contract with the Colorado Rockies that included an invitation to spring training. He was released prior to the start of the season on April 4.
On April 19, 2011, Duncan was signed to a minor league contract by the St. Louis Cardinals and assigned to the Double-A Springfield Cardinals.
