Eric Duncan (born December 7, 1984, in Florham Park, New Jersey, USA) is an American baseball player plays for the AAA Scranton/Wilkes Barre Yankees in the New York Yankees organization. He was drafted as a third baseman, but has been converted into a first baseman, due to the long-term contract of Yankee Alex Rodriguez[citation needed].

Duncan attended Seton Hall Preparatory School in West Orange, New Jersey.[1] Duncan was selected by the Yankees in the 1st Round (27th overall) of the 2003 Major League Baseball Draft. Baseball America named him the Yankees 2005 highest prospect, a position later taken by pitcher Phil Hughes.
