I started this blog to provide a casual, recreational level of fantasy NASCAR advice and discussion.  I've been playing these contests for a number of years and am annoyed by lineup sellers and groups of players using the same lineup.  I'm hoping to give the casual player some help in building solid lineups that can beat that annoying crowd most of the time.  I'm not a "tout" and don't do this for a living, so proceed accordingly.  I hope you enjoy the discussion here and Good Luck!

pocono post qualifying notes

I'm going to spend a little more time thinking about how to handle the front of the field, but here are guys I am targeting from the 15th starting position on back.  We have a good number of guys with some potential and reasonable prices:
  • Brad Keselowski (17th) -- Will probably be in all my cash lineups.  He has five straight Top 5 finishes at Pocono.  Expect a Top 10 finish with good position difference points.  Also a sub $10K price on DK.
  • Daniel Suarez (18th) -- Ran pretty well at Pocono last year.  The JGR Toyotas have good speed, so I expect him to move up at least 5 positions.
  • Eric Jones (25th) -- Finished 3rd and 8th last year at Pocono.  From his post-qualifying interview, it seems like they might have misjudged what it would take to advance to Round Two.  Great upside here at a reasonable price.  Also likely to be in all my cash lineups.
  • Matt Kenseth (26th) -- Obviously in much better equipment, but Top 10 in five of the last six Pocono races.  He's been highly owned since his return and I expect the same to be true this week.
  • Ty Dillon (29th) -- As we noted below, this is one of his better tracks.  Finished Top 20 here both races last year with +9 and +13 position difference.
  • Aric Almirola (34th) -- Said his crew told him he had an equalized tire (inner liner leaking air into the main tire) that threw off the balance in qualifying.  Should be a Top 20 car with 15+ position difference points, but Almirola really has a bad record at Pocono.  His best finish is 18th and he's only been in the Top 20 in four out of eleven races.  Put your expectations at a 15th-20th finishing position when you decide what to do with him.
