2019 Fantasy Nascar Picks (Vegas)

Welcome to TimersSports

Fantasy Nascar Picks -

DDG:

A -

Start - Kyle Larson

Bench - Martin Truex Jr

Reasons - I originally didn't have Larson in my lineup, but I put him at the last minute. His numbers of late here are stupid good. He has finishes of 2nd, 3rd and 2nd over his last three races here. Another thing to love is how the 42 car has ran on the 1.5 mile track of late, there's a lot of things to love about him. I like Truex Jr, too. But I don't think he will be as good as last week, though. I also love the Penske cars this weekend!

B -

Start - Ryan Blaney and Ryan Newman

Bench - Kurt Busch and Aric Almirola

Reasons -This grouping tier is tough because none of them are starting well. Three of them are starting 25th or worse. Not exactly as I expected things to go. Blaney was basically a lock heading into the week and that hasn't changed. I don't want to use Aric here, as I feel like he will be better at other tracks. Kurt could be a very solid option, but his numbers of late hasn't exactly set the world on fire. Like Aric, I think there's better places for Kurt. So why not go with a guy like Newman? 7 Top 13 finises over his last 9 races and usually good for a top 15 finish most weekends

C:

Start - Matt DiBenedetto

Bench - Ryan Preece

Reasons - I regret leaving Daniel Hemric off my team this week, as he looked fast in practice on both Friday and Saturday. I don't think Hemric will back up the speed in the race though. As for my picks, I will be using Matt DiBenedetto as my starter. He's probably the third best driver in this grouping tier overall. Behind drivers like Buescher and Hemric. With that said, I don't think the difference between DiBenedetto and Preece is significant! 

Dark Horse - Ryan Blaney

Winner - Kyle Busch
