Fantasy Nascar Picks -
Yahoo -
A -
Start - Martin Truex Jr (5)
Bench - Kyle Busch (5)
Reasons -Late Thursday night, I decided to go with a change in my lineup. Hamlin was great choice, but it didn't make much sense to use Hamlin. As Truex Jr is the hottest driver in the series and dominated last year. Good thing I did that as Truex Jr is looking like he could dominate again. Especially with Larson starting deep in the field. Not to say there aren't some fast cars starting up front though. Truex Jr just better than all of them.
B -
Start - Jamie Mac (4) and Ricky Stenhouse Jr (7)
Bench - Clint Bowyer (5) and Ryan Newman (6)
Reasons -I made one change in this grouping tier on Thursday night and that was Jamie Mac in for Kurt Busch. Looking back on it, I probably should had kept Busch on here and swapped out Ryan Newman. As the RCR cars keep looking slow. But I didn't. So I am going with Jamie Mac as my obvious starter. Then it down to Bowyer or Stenhouse Jr. I like Bowyer here at New Hampshire, but I rather start him when he has a better shot at a great finish. Stenhouse Jr is good here and is very consistent this season. Overall, my decision to go with Stenhouse Jr over Bowyer shouldn't be much of a different. I think the main different will be I am saving a start with Bowyer from mid-pack at a short race.
Elliott is probably the best pick in this grouping tier. Blaney is interesting and probably could (and should) be a top 10 pick. Larson there too, even though he is starting last. Kahne has good finishes recently here ans starting up front, but I don't trust him. I don't really see anyone worth using honestly. At least not among the drivers I haven't mentioned.
C -
Start - Erik Jones (6)
Bench - Ty Dillon (6)
Reasons -I am not against running Ty Dillon, as I think he will better in the race than he practiced. But I would not suggest it, if you do then well you are more man than I. I cannot start Ty Dillon this weekend as planned because I just don't see the 77 or 19 falling off that much. They both could finish in the top 10. While if Dillon finishes in the top 20, if would be like a win. He's really struggled overall. I say Dillon is top 25 material, but that's it. Jones on the other hand, is considered a good dark horse pick to win.
Fantasy Live - 78,18,42,34 and 95
Reasons - I am going with a pretty standard lineup. Truex Jr or Busch should lead the most laps and pile up the fast laps. Kyle Larson is for the positions in the back. Then the back-end of my lineup is just value. McDowell usually a good driver for a top 25 finish. I don't love him that much, but he is the best driver in his price range, without having to drop my top three drivers. If I could, I would. Then Landon Cassill rounding out my team. I may make a change or two before lockdown on Sunday, but not likely.
Fox Fantasy Auto Racing - 42,4,43, 24 and 21
Reasons - The fox game is about starting drivers that can gain position and finish up front. Larson is a must-have, even with his price tag. Harvick will start from 12th and should be in the top 5 at some point. Elliott starting from 11th and should move up and contend for a top 5. Blaney will start 16th and should move up at least 5 to 6 spots. Then finally, Aric Almirola. He is cheap and starting 21st. He's good on these kind of tracks.
Sleeper - Aric Almirola
Reasons - Some people will say, ''Well do you really trust Aric that much, since this is his first race back?'' Yes I do. What I seen this weekend is pretty much what we saw from him before. Top 20 driver and that basically what he shown this weekend. I say he get closer to the top 15 though. I think Aric is in that 14th-18th range like usual. I trust him the most at New Hampshire, Phoenix, Richmond and Martinsville. These are places that he makes his living at. He's a good pick, if you are looking for someone under the radar with top 20 potential.
Winner - Martin Truex Jr
Reasons - Turex Jr has the car to beat and I think he is motivated to prove to everyone that he can dominate here and everywhere else.
