Here’s what people have been saying about Duncan:
@NYY_Prospects: “As anticipated, the Yankees had to pony up for Duncan. That’s $1,045,800 overslot. That puts them $549,600 in the red in terms of savings, albeit with only 7 players’ signing bonuses revealed. But remember, the 105% rule means they can be as much as $367,000 over at the end.”
@VirginiaYankee1: “Wow. Didn’t expect that big of an overslot. But very happy to have him in the fold”
@cai_rogers7: “All 4 of the Yankees HS prep picks have officially signed! Huge news! 2nd rounder Sean Duncan (LHP) 6th rounder Andrew Gonzales (INF) 13th rounder Lee Garris (OF) 15th rounder William Cutshall (INF) Very possible the Yankees are able to sign every member of the 2026 draft class…”
