Fantasy Nascar Picks

Welcome to TimersSports

Phoenix Recap: For the fourth straight race in Yahoo , least one of our picks finished one lap down. As we still scored 327 points. But for the 8th straight race we topped 270 points  (3rd time this season we have done that.) Fantasy Live was much better with Harvick , BK and Logano leading the charge. Annett and Sorenson were huge bargain plays.

Look ahead to Homestead: This is always a good race , but I wouldn't be shocked to see a lot of wrecked cars before the checkers. From a fantasy view , this race is critical! Most leagues aren't quite decided yet , so coming away with an massive score is a must. The question is who will exit Homestead with championship glory?

Overall Rankings:

Yahoo Ranking: 200th (99th Percentile)

Fantasy Live Ranking: 182nd (99th Percentile)

Yahoo-

A:

Start: Jeff Gordon (1)

Bench: Kyle Busch (7)

Reason: I had no intentions on benching Gordon this week. So no surprise I am starting him. Gordon nabbing the pole made my decision even easier. I throw Busch on for Q-Pts. Didn't work out. Moving on.

B:

Start: Joey Logano (1) , Brad Keselowski (1)

Bench: JMac (3) , Carl Edwards (3)

Reasons: Another easy decision. Penske > everyone in B tier. This was literally a no brainer.

C:

Start: Kyle Larson (1)

Bench:  Justin Alliager (7)

Reasons: If you have any Larson left then its a no brainer. Larson is by far the best choice in C.

Fantasy Live - Gordon , Logano , Harvick , Mears and Annett

Dark Horse - Clint Bowyer

Race Winner - Jimmie Johnson
