Fantasy Nascar Picks (Pocono)

Welcome to TimersSports

Pocono in my personal opinion is one of the most boring races on the schedule! Your typical Pocono race will consist of: Long green flag runs, limited passing and crazy fuel strategy.

This weekend you will want a combination of big time names and sleepers in your fantasy lineups. However I wouldn't get too crazy with my lineups though. From experience, I can tell you getting too fancy will come back and bite you!

Yahoo -

A:

Start: Kevin Harvick

Bench: Denny Hamlin

Explanation - Not really much of a debate. Harvick been the best driver in everything this weekend. He swept all three practices and start 5th. With only 26% selecting him, he becomes a super value play IMO.

B:

Start: Kurt Busch, Carl Edwards

Bench: Kyle Larson , Kasey Kahne

Explanation - I been planning for weeks to start Busch at Pocono. Him winning the pole set that action in stone. It helped that he posted a solid pair of practice. I was set on Larson, but Instead going Edwards. Why? I feel like Larson will be useful on more predictable tracks. Plus Edwards was little better overall IMO.

C:

Start: Danica Patrick

Bench: David Ragan

Explanation - This grouping tier is pretty weak overall. Danica been the best driver consistently in practice. Not even gonna try to get fancy and use Ragan.

Fantasy Live - 4,41,78,13,10

Sleeper Pick - Austin Dillon

Race Winner - Kevin Harvick
