6.13.13 - A big riser in the 2014 class, Duncan is an athletically built 6-foot-2, 170-pound infielder with considerable upside. Showed quick-twitch athleticism throughout event: ran a 6.81 60, athletic arm in the field, bat speed at the plate (89 mph exit velocity). Hands really work at the plate. Has level bat path, balanced, quiet approach, fast hands and showed power potential. Defensively, may profile more at third base at next level, though certainly has the requisite tools to play shortstop. Has athletic arm, plays through the ball well, accuracy across the infield at 77 mph. On the mound, fastball topped at 83 mph, and also threw a curveball (65-66) and changeup (69-71). Overall, Duncan has the frame to easily add strength while maintaining his athleticism and adding more power in the future.

4/26/13 - Has the tools and upside to become Division I infielder in future. Athletic, projectable 6-foot-3, 195-pound frame, long limbs, with plenty of room to develop. Offensively, has loose, quick hands at plate; excellent bat speed and barrel whip through zone. Hits from slightly open setup, balanced, has rhythm. Against Belleville West, Duncan turned on an inside fastball for a double down the left field line; also ripped a single to the right side on outer half pitch. For season, he’s hitting .414 with 7 doubles, 2 homers, 2 triples, 30 RBI. Defensively, shows athletic actions and above-average arm strength from shortstop, though may project more as 3B in future if continues to fill out physically. Made extremely athletic play in which he broke to second base on a steal, had to change direction on the hit, made a backhand play and threw runner out with ease. Duncan is definite high-follow in 2014 class.
