Shelley Duncan, who previously managed the Yankees’ Triple-A team Scranton/Wilkes-Barre for four seasons, is now joining the Red Sox’s major league coaching staff under manager Chad Tracy. This marks a significant move as Duncan shifts from the Yankees organization to their rivals, the Red Sox.
At 47, Duncan is the son of Dave Duncan, a well-known pitching coach. He started his career as a second-round pick by the Yankees in 2001. Throughout his seven-year major league playing career, he spent his first three seasons with the Yankees. Before his time with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, Duncan held coaching roles with the Diamondbacks, Blue Jays, and White Sox.
He began managing at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre in the 2023 season and earned the prestigious title of International Manager of the Year in 2025. His brother, Chris, also played in the majors, spending five seasons with the Cardinals.
The news of Duncan’s new role with the Red Sox was initially reported by MassLive, marking a noteworthy move in his coaching career.
