Welcome to TimersSports
We are headed to Bristol this week for the second short track race of the season. We were at Martinsville a few weeks ago, however they are not comparable tracks. In fact, I don't view either track as comparable to another track on the schedule. They are both unique in their own way. In recent seasons, Bristol have been unpredictable as they come. I love the racing that Bristol brings as fan. But as a fantasy player, this place scares the heck out of me. I think we gonna see a bit crazy race on Sunday.
Below are my picks for Bristol!
*This page will be updated throughout the week
Yahoo -
A:
Start - Kyle Busch (8)
Bench - Joey Logano (9)
Reasons - Pretty simple this week. Kyle Busch! That's all you need to know for your A-list driver for Bristol. You give me Kyle Busch or the field, and I feel pretty good about picking Kyle Busch. I think he leads the most laps and wins the race. Logano wasn't too bad in practice, but I doubt he stays up inside the top 3 or 4.
B:
Start - Ryan Newman (7), Carl Edwards (6)
Bench - Kyle Larson (9), Ricky Stenhouse Jr (9)
Reasons - I would use Kyle Larson over Carl Edwards, however I am also planning to use Chase Elliott. So I could go the Newman/Larson route, but why not go for max points instead? I hate burning a start here, but it could pay off hugely. Honestly between Larson and Newman, they are pretty close. I think Larson is quicker. But I trust Newman more. I am going with the driver I trust though.
C:
Start - Chase Elliott (9)
Bench - Ty Dillon (8)
Reasons - I was going to use Ty Dillon for Sunday's race, but that plan got tossed out the window. I have not been impressed by him at all. I find it very hard to bench him at the moment. He have been awesome this season. Since I have all 9 starts with him still, I am okay with using an Elliott start.
Fantasy Live - 18,20,19,98,17
Sleeper - Kyle Larson
Winner - Kyle Busch
