Welcome to TimersSports
Fantasy Nascar Picks -
Driver Group Game -
A:
Start - Kyle Busch (9)
Bench - Kevin Harvick (9)
Reasons - I planned all week to use Harvick and then I had a bright idea to throw Kyle Busch in there because of his low % selected. Well, Kyle Busch is on the pole now. Gamble paid off and I am fully going to take advantage. He has a chance at some bonus points on lap one and he looked great in practice. Good enough for me!
B:
Start - Jamie Mac (9), Ricky Stenhouse Jr (9)
Bench - Chase Elliott (9), Erik Jones (9)
Reasons -I made a mistake not going with Kurt Busch over Jamie Mac like I originally planned. I am not that impressed with Jamie Mac, but Elliott or Jones are way too valuable to use this week. Neither driver looked top 5 good when you WANT to use them. So I am going with Jamie Mac and hope that he can sneak away with a low-teen finish. My other start will be Ricky Stenhouse Jr. He has looked very good so far this weekend and been top 10 good in each of past two seasons.
My Ideal starters in this grouping tier would had been Ryan Newman and Kurt Busch, if I had to pick right now. I don't think I would want to use Jones, Elliott, Blaney or Suarez. They are all pretty valuable and none of them look capable of their full potential
C:
Start - Alex Bowman (9)
Bench - William Bryon (9)
Reasons - The HMS cars have looked off this weekend, so I am kinda screwed either way. So I am going with Alex Bowman here and hoping for a top 20 finish. I didn't plan to use William Bryon regardless how good he looked.
Fantasy Live -
Kevin Harvick, Kyle Busch, Ricky Stenhouse Jr, Kurt Busch, Clint Bowyer and Kyle Larson (garage pick)
Reasons - I am going with a combination of drivers that has shown speed and ones that I may not use every week. Kevin Harvick and Kyle Busch are proabbly the top two drivers to beat entering the race. Then there is Clint Bowyer who I probably won't max out this year, but he looked really fast on Saturday. Kurt Busch has an excellent record at Atlanta and like his teammates is fast. Ricky Stenhouse is a really nice sleeper with a possibility to grab a top 10 finish, too. Then my garage pick will be Kyle Larson. I don't want to use Kyle Larson here, but I will if he looks really good before end of stage 2. Truex Jr is also tugging at me as that garage pick, but he is starting so far back. Seems like Larson is the more logically pick to me.
SlingShot Fantasy Auto Game -
Martin Truex Jr, Austin Dillon, Jimmie Johnson, Ty Dillon and Ryan Blaney
Reasons - Truex Jr is a must-have this week starting from 35th. Locked. Johnson, Austin Dillon and Blaney are starting 22nd, 25th and 26th. They all have a chance to move up 10 spots or more. Johnson will proabbly flirt with the top 10. Blaney have a shot at getting close to the top 10, too. Dillon is the question mark, but it sounded like he was happy with his car at end of practice. Starting from 25th? Why freaking not? Then Ty Dillon is just on there as the backmarker. He is starting deep enough in the field where he can only move forward. I am just going with the points differential method here. Atlanta there is plenty of chances to make passes!
Dark Horse -Kurt Busch
Winner -Kyle Busch
