Welcome to TimersSports
Fantasy Nascar Picks -
Driver Group Game -
A:
Start - Kevin Harvick
Bench - Brad Keselowski
Reasons - I really wanted to use Keselowski, but Harvick starts about 15 spots closer to the front and he has the car to beat, too. If I felt that Harvick didn't have a domiant car, I would probably take the gamble. I just don't see the upside in benching him. He's too hot to bench anyhow!
B:
Start - Chase Elliott, Jamie Mac
Bench - Erik Jones, Kurt Busch
Reasons - Overall, I feel good about my choices. I regret not having someone like Aric Almirola, but that's okay. I plan to use Chase Elliott, as he looks really strong this weekend. Then to use or not to use Erik Jones. I think Jones could be special on Sunday, but I also see red flags with him. More specifically, he has been having power steering issues. As much as I want to overlook that, I cannot. On the other hand, Jamie Mac is in Erik Jones' range. He is rostered by a much lower % and offer some nice value.
C:
Start - Alex Bowman
Bench - Darrell Wallace Jr
Reasons - If you have Alex Bowman, you are not gonna bench him. He looks that damn good. End of story. William Byron is also looking very good. HMS in general has improved a lot over the last couple weeks. Are they onto something? Only time will time.
Fantasy Live -
Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin, Chase Elliott, Aric Almirola, Alex Bowman and Erik Jones (Garage driver)
Reasons - Harvick is the man to beat, so I am gonna use him again. Hamlin and Elliott should finish in the top 5 and I haven't used either driver yet. Seems like a good time to employ them. Aric Almirola looked solid in final practice and Bowman seems to be really good, too. I am pretty happy with his kind of roster. It will be interesting how good Jones is, because I would love to use him!
SlingShot Fantasy Auto -
Kevin Harvick, Kurt Busch, Brad Keselowski, Ricky Stenhouse Jr and William Byron
Reasons - I think Harvick is gonna lead a lot of laps and him starting 10th makes him an easy pick. So now, I want some drivers starting mid-pack. First guy jumped out? Brad Keselowski. He has a heavy price tag, but he will be worth from 25th place. Kurt Busch from 23rd should be another nice pick. He will move up somewhere between 10 to 12 spots. Stenhouse Jr is questionable call, but he will be scored from 29th. He has a good history of finishing in the top 20. I will take my chances. After all of that, I have $7,700 so I am going with William Byron. He is starting 11th, so there is chance he will cost us points. But I will gamble on him.
Truthfully, I could had created a little more stable roster but then I would had switched my entire lineup around. Including some picks that I really love.
Dark Horse - Chase Elliott
Winner - Kevin Harvick
