Welcome to TimersSports
Believe it or not, this is the final week of the 2015 Nascar season! It will be final time we set our fantasy lineups. One more opportunity. One more shot at winning our fantasy racing leagues. One more shot to thrive for fantasy glory. Don't waste it, your time is now! How bad do you want?
That's my small motivation speech for those of you still battling for something in your respected fantasy racing leagues. Alright let's dig into today's sleepers!
Sleepers -
Aric Almirola - I consider Aric Almiorla to be the Ryan Newman of 2015 to a lesser extent. He have only finished worse than 20th seven times in 35 races this season. Pretty impressive for a team like RPM, who have never been about consistency. I been riding the Almirola's express since back at Atlanta! It been a fun ride, so why stop now? He enters Homestead with 7 Top 18 finishes in 9 races during the chase. With 4 Top 10 finishes, including his most recent outing at Phoenix. He been pretty good at Homestead in his career since joining RPM too. In 4 career starts with RPM, he have finished 19th or better in every start and have finished on the lead lap in every start. That sort of things have boded well for him in the past and should find more success this weekend at Homestead. He is probably a top 20 potential fantasy pick, with upside to finish in the top 15. Given practice and qualifying all goes well.
Clint Bowyer - I made a promise to only trust Bowyer on the road courses before the season started, and that was very wise advice overall. Bowyer and MWR just have had a very crappy year, despite making the chase. However certain places he have always ran well at, he once again ran well this season. Homestead should be one of them. He enters Homestead with 4 straight top 8 finishes at this 1.5 mile racetrack. Overall he have ripped off 7 straight top 12 results at this place. In 9 career starts, he have only once finished worse than 12th place. He been up and down during the chase, but on the positive side he have finished 2 of the past 3 races on the 1.5 mile racetracks in the top 15. There clearly risks with Bowyer, but I do like what he brings to the table though.
Austin Dillon - Dillon have not set the world fire this season, but he have taken much bigger step than I expected him to. Early in the season, I saw the potential for him to be a gem down the line. Slowly he have turned into a hidden gem in certain formats. He haven't always delivered the results, but when he does he have been a very strong fantasy option. Listen to some of his recent results on the high-speed intermediate racetracks: 11th (Texas),7th (Charlotte), and Michigan (4th). Obviously he have had some bad results as well on this type of racetrack. He either been top 12 finisher or bust really. Dillon is currently riding a season-high 4 straight top 20 finishes. Overall he have finished 5 of the past 6 races inside the top 20.
Want to end this piece with saying, Congrats to the guys over at FantasyNascarPreview.com on a unbelievable run with their site.
