2017 Fantasy Recap - In last offseason's profile's of Trevor Bayne, I projected him to have 0 wins, 2-4 top 5 finishes, 3-6 top 10 finishes and 18-22 top 20 finishes. Well, I nailed every single of those total right there. It doesn't take a rocket science to figure out what Bayne is probably capable of. Still, it is nice to have a set of prediction to plan out according. In 2016, Bayne had a career-year in his young cup career. He posted slightly even better numbers in 2017. He had same amount of top 5 finishes, one more top 10 finish and a slightly better average finish of 19.5 compared to his 19.9 in 2016. My biggest thing heading into the season with Bayne was not decending in 2017. I thought early in the season, he showed real potential and promise with all of those top 10 and top 15 finishes he had in the first 11 races. In those first 11 races, he had 8(!!) top 13 finishes!
Strong Tracks - Bristol, Michigan and Atlanta
Weak Tracks - Sonoma, Indy and Darlington

2018 Fantasy Outlook - Over the last two seasons, Bayne has shown something as driver. He is showing us that he belong at this level and is capable of being in the #6 car. Early last season, he started off very strong. Similarly to how good he was to start off in 2016 as well. I know a lot of people will say that RFR is slow and Bayne is talentless and whatever nonsense is out there. But I don't believe that stuff. RFR is slowly getting back to being more competitive than it was three years ago and Bayne is also starting to improve as a driver, too. Bayne will be capable of running well and of course he will have his share of bad races, as well. In 2018, I think he will have a similar season to the last two seasons he had. And like the past two seasons, I think he will continue to improve. He was good in 2016, but slightly better in 2017. For Bayne's sake, I hope he is slightly better in 2018. And if he can have a strong start to the season like in 2017, then he has a chance to have really good year. Because believe it or not, I think RFR will be better than it has been over the past two seasons and we all know they have came quite long ways from 2014 and 2015.
