Fantasy Nascar Picks (PHX)

Welcome to TimersSports

Las Vegas Recap: Cannot remember last time I had start a season this bad. This might be my worst start ever. Least in Yahoo. Back-to-back scores below 200. Las Vegas was a little better than Atlanta overall. Johnson was the centerpiece of my lineups and him crashing pretty much ruined my points day altogether. Edwards was also a primary piece. Tough luck all it is.

Look ahead to Phoenix: Over the next several weeks is where the contenders start to inch toward top of your league. This week and next week are the best opportunities to gain ground back. Especially with places like Darlington , Texas , Charlotte and Kansas coming up.

Yahoo Picks -

A:

Start- Kevin Harvick (9)

Bench - Joey Logano (9)

Reason: Harvick starts on the pole and had one of the best car in Saturday practices. And is going for a 4th straight win on Sunday. Do I need to say more?

B:

Start - Kurt Busch (9) , Martin Truex Jr (8)

Bench - Carl Edwards (8) , Jamie McMurray (9)

Reason - B is all about start saving and using the best available drivers. Truex Jr is hot and I don't see him finishing worse than 8th. Busch is easily a top 5 car and less than 10% of Yahoo took him. Sweet Value right there. JMac qualified good , but I take my 3 points from qualifying and run.

C:

Start - David Ragan (8)

Bench - Danica Patrick (9)

Reason - Ragan is in much better equipment & he looks to be faster. Danica track record isn't the best and probably better options out there.

Fantasy Live - Kevin Harvick , Kurt Busch , Dale Jr , David Ragan and Cole Witt

Sleeper Pick - Jamie McMurray

Race Winner - Kevin Harvick
