Welcome to TimersSports
It been a while since, I had to sit down and write up my weekly picks. With everything that has happened over the past month or so. But I am happy to be back at it and looking forward to another exciting weekend of racing, as well. I cannot say that I love Kansas (the racetrack itself), but I think it will have a lot of drama involved in it. Considering it is a eliminating race and so much is on the line. For whatever reason, I have a feeling a big time player (above the advancement cut-off) will have issues on Sunday that let a guy like Kyle Busch or Matt Kenseth sneak back in. I could be totally wrong, but I am just expecting that sort of race.
Let's get into the picks!
Yahoo -
A:
Start - Martin Truex Jr
Bench - Kevin Harvick
Reasons -It is tough to bench either driver really, but I am going with the driver who has won the most this season and the driver starting on the pole. Truex Jr dominanted Kansas back in 2016, when he started on the pole. I don't think it will be quite as bad this time, but he should lead a lot of laps in the race.
B:
Start - Kyle Larson, Jamie Mac
Bench - Ryan Blaney and Kurt Busch
Reasons -It is a tough week to make decisions in the B-list, but Blaney starting in the rear did make it a little easier. Larson looks like the driver to beat in final practice and JMac look like a top 10 driver, too. This season, I would say both drivers been among the most consistent drivers in the series.
Blaney is a great option, if you want to go with him. There's obviously some risk, but the payoff would be huge. Chase Elliott should be top 10 good. Bowyer is a great off-sequence pick, too. He looked really good in final practice.
C:
Start - Erik Jones
Bench - Ty Dillon
Reasons -I really wanted to use Dillon here, but that will not happen. Jones is top 10 good and I am going to cash in and hope for the best. For me to start Dillon, I need to know that he can finish between 15th and 20th. I don't know if he can and I don't know if Jones will fade enough to help. I have to go with Jones. There will be other chances to save in the next couple weeks.
