Fantasy Nascar Picks (Texas)

Welcome to TimersSports


We will turn our attention to Texas after a drama filled Martinsville race! Personally I think this is refreshing after the past few weeks. Nothing like a intermediate racetrack to put the boring back into Nascar, right? Yeah I doubt Sunday's race will be boring by any means, but it would be a nice change of pace for us fantasy people, don't you think? So how do you attack picks at Texas? Good question! Personally I like going with a combo of value picks and studs. I think the chase drivers will dominate this race, however I see several drivers under the radar that could be solid fantasy plays if everything go according to plan.

Here's today Picks!

Yahoo -

A:

Start - Joey Logano

Bench - Kevin Harvick

Reasons -I think it will be very close between these drivers. So I am going with the drivers who I think will be in less fantasy lineups and will try to win more. I think that driver will be Joey Logano. I believe he is in a win or go home situation this week. That 22 car should be tough to beat after it get to the lead.

B:

Start - Carl Edwards and Kasey Kahne

Bench - Martin Truex Jr, Jamie Mac

Reasons -Tough decisions this week with very little practice. So I am going with the drivers that start closer to the front. Edwards and Kahne will start from 13th and 16th. Also I trust both of them a little more to deliver a quality finish. Truex Jr would be my ideal fantasy pick, if he didn't start mid-pack. I only have one start left with Jamie Mac and I plan to use it next week.

C:

Start - Ryan Blaney

Bench - Brian Scott

Reasons - I have one start left with Ryan Blaney and I plan to use it here at Texas! I don't see any reason to save him for another week personally. Because only other race he entered in is Homestead. With Ty Dillon entered in that race, I see no reason to save him for then.

Fantasy Live -4,22,78,35 and 17
