Michigan Recap: Sometimes we have to man up and take it on the chain with a lesser score. That was the case in Yahoo. An score of 270 points wasn't bad. Especially considering Jeff Burton left my team high and dry. Nevertheless benching Logano for Menard was brilliant! Only lost 21 points and save myself another Logano for the 1.5 milers in the chase. Fantasy Live was solid with Logano , Gordon and Harvick dominating up front all day. Mears started 26th and finished 17th. Sorenson started 40th and finished 29th.
Look ahead to Bristol: Weather is looking iffy for Bristol. Not shocking though. To me Bristol is the true wildcard before the chase. Having a well balanced lineup is idealistic to me. In Yahoo , having drivers on for solely qualifying is foolish. Especially if your other options qualify bad. Expect me to select upsided drivers. With a blend of underrated options.
Yahoo-
A:
Start: Matt Kenseth (8)
Bench : Jeff Gordon (3)
Reason: Well I will have to take the bullet this weekend again. Kenseth was strong in both sessions on Friday. Unfortunately starts 16th. Gordon starts 2nd , but I don't think he scores max points though. So I am hoping Harvick can keep Gordon at bay early on.
B:
Start: Denny Hamlin (4) , Paul Menard (8)
Bench: Jamie Mac (7) , Brad Keselowski (4)
Reason: Simple decisions here. Hamlin starts 13th and looks to be a top 10 option. Menard have top 15 potential. Menard doesn't excites me , but I will gamble with him. BK I am trying to save for Atlanta.
C:
Start: Jeff Burton (7)
Bench: Danica Patrick (5)
Reason: Burton and Patrick start very close to each other , so I will go with the more proven racer in Burton. Hopefully Burton can stay out of trouble.
Fantasy Live: Kyle Larson , Kevin Harvick , Jeff Gordon , Casey Mears , and Reed Sorenson
Reason: Simple lineup. Gordon and Harvick will race for the win. Mears , Larson and Sorenson should be able improve their starting position.
