Fantasy Nascar Picks

Welcome to TimersSports

Recap Pocono: Pocono was overall solid outing in Yahoo and Fantasy Live. In Yahoo , I was able to save both Keselowski and Logano. In an 281 points day. Closing the overall points lead down to 12 points was a huge plus for me. In Fantasy Live , I had solid scores across the board. Nothing to brag about though.

Look ahead to Watkins: We are at Watkins Glenn this weekend. This race to me is about survival then anything. Gaining on the competition is always a goal. But minimum damage to your championship hopes may be more important. So look for me to play it safe with my selection of picks. As road courses are typically unpredictable. Remember Ambrose last year? Dominating performance , but got caught back in traffic and finish 30th-ish.

Yahoo:

A- Start: Kyle Busch (7) Bench: Kevin Harvick (5)

Reason: My plan was to use Busch for Sunday race. I will stick to it. For multiple of reasons. The main one is Harvick will be useful at other upcoming tracks. I will bite the bullet and hope for the best.

B -

Start: Marcos Ambrose (8) , Aj Dinger (8)

Bench: Joey Logano (5) , Brad Keselowski (4)

Reason: My plan was to use Keselowski and Logano for possible qualifying points. It didn't work out. So I will take the safe route with Ambrose and Dinger.

C: Start: Justin Alliager (9)

    Bench: Michael McDowell (9)

Reason: Pretty logically here. Justin starts 15th and Michael starts 29th. Track position is huge. McDowell equipment is questionable as well.

Fantasy Live - Ambrose , Dinger , Busch , Biffle and danica.

Dark Horse - Jamie Mac

Race Winner - Aj Dinger
