WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (7/25/20): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

It's here! The 2020 WNBA season was pushed back because of COVID-19, the season was shortened to 22 games, and it's all taking place in Florida, with players staying at IMG Academy and playing games at the Feld Entertainment Center, but at least it's happening. The teams look a lot different this year, with star […]

NASCAR Truck Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Kansas Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 200 (7/24/20)

Friday features the first of back-to-back NASCAR Truck Series races at Kansas Speedway, with the Blue-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 200. This race should be mostly normal -- it's Saturday with a partial field invert that can create some really neat ways to exploit the DFS pricing -- but if Thursday's Cup race is any indication, […]

Martin Truex Jr. Is A Favorite At Kansas

Joe Gibbs Racing's Martin Truex Jr. has an average finish of 8.3 over the last 10 races at Kansas Speedway, including a sweep of the races here in 2017. Over this span, he's ed 508 laps, though since 2018, he's led just 46, signalling that he might not be quite as strong here as he […]

Tyler Reddick Is Strong Value Play At Kansas

Richard Childress Racing's Tyler Reddick is coming off a career-best second place finish at Texas on Sunday and has three consecutive top 10 finishes. But Reddick remains a relatively affordable DFS option on both DraftKings and FanDuel, and with a 23rd place starting spot for Thursday's Super Start Batteries 400 at Kansas Speedway, he'll bring […]

Joey Logano Set To Start Second On Thursday Day

Penske Racing's Joey Logano will pilot his 22 car from the second starting position for Thursday night's Super Start Batteries 400 at Kansas Speedway. Logano -- a 2015 winner at this track -- had a pair of disappointing runs here last season, finishing 15th and 17th, and in the last 10 races here also has […]

Brad Keselowski Set For Strong Run At Kansas

Penske Racing's Brad Keselowski will take the green flag from the seventh position on Thursday night for the Super Start Batteries 400 at Kansas Speedway. The winner of this race last year, Keselowski has six top 10s in his last 10 starts at the track, including a second-place finish back in 2017. While he's also […]

NASCAR Research Station: DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Lineup Picks - Super Start Batteries 400

This week, NASCAR's doing things backwards, with the Cup Series starting off the weekend of action on Thursday night before a Friday/Saturday doubleheader for the Truck Series and an Xfinity race on Sunday to cap things off. It's odd, but it's also exciting because it means we get one more weeknight Cup race before other […]

Our friends at Monkey Knife Fight offer some of the coolest, and easiest to win, NASCAR DFS games in the industry. If you haven't checked out these […]

Jimmie Johnson Has Upside At Kansas On Thursday

Hendrick Motorsports driver Jimmie Johnson has struggled recently at Kansas Speedway, with just two top 10s in the last six races here. But both of those top 10s came in 2019, and Johnson starts Thursday's Super Start Batteries 400 in 20th, giving him solid place differential upside. There is, of course, reason to worry about […]

Kyle Busch Looks To Continue Kansas Resurgence

For much of his career, Kyle Busch was just plain bad at Kansas Speedway. From his first race in 2004 through the first race here in 2014, Busch had just two top 10s at the track and eight finishes outside the top 20. He's improved since then, including getting a pair of top fives in […]

Kurt Busch Looking To Continue Recent Kansas Success

Chip Ganassi Racing's Kurt Busch has seven top-10 finishes in his last 10 NASCAR Cup Series races at Kansas Speedway, but he's still searching for his first win at the track. Busch has gotten as high as second-place in the finishing order twice here, but just hasn't been able to pull off a victory. Busch […]

Clint Bowyer Has Place Differential Upside At Kansas

It's true that Kansas Speedway hasn't always been the best track for Clint Bowyer, whose average finish in his last 10 starts at the track is 17.5, with just three top 10s in those 10 races. But Bowyer did have a pair of top 10s here last year, including a fifth-place run in the first […]

Alex Bowman Has Solid Upside At Kansas

Hendrick Motorsports driver Alex Bowman is set to start sixth in Thursday's Super Start Batteries 400 at Kansas Speedway. In five starts at this track in the 88 car, Bowman has a worst finish of 18th with three top 10s, including a second-place finish in this race a year ago. Bowman's spot on the starting […]

Kevin Harvick Starts From Pole At Kansas

Stewart Haas Racing's Kevin Harvick will start from the pole on Thursday when the NASCAR Cup Series visits Kansas Speedway for the Super Start Batteries 400. Harvick's placement on the grid does take away some of his DFS upside, as he won't be able to earn place differential points, but his history at this track […]

Jimmie Johnson Looks To Break Through At Texas

It seems weird to talk about seven-time NASCAR Cup Series champion Jimmie Johnson as someone who needs a strong run, but Johnson sits 15th in points right now after missing a race due to COVID-19 and hasn't won a race since 2017. Texas is a strong place for the 48 team, though, as Johnson's won […]

Denny Hamlin Could Disappoint At Texas

Joe Gibbs Racing's Denny Hamlin is one of the highest-priced drivers on Sunday's slate for the O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. He's also one of the riskiest DFS options because of his price. Why, when Hamlin has already won four times this year? Because his performance at the 1.5-mile tracks like Texas […]

Tyler Reddick Is Strong Value Play At Texas

Richard Childress Racing's Tyler Reddick is set to be a strong value option for DFS players for Sunday's O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. The rookie starts in 24th place for Sunday's race and is coming off back-to-back top 10s, including a 10th place finish last week at Kentucky, another 1.5-mile track. Reddick […]

NASCAR Research Station: DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Lineup Picks - O'Reilly Auto Parts 500

NASCAR returns to Texas Motor Speedway on Sunday for the O'Reilly Auto Parts 500. Can Kevin Harvick continue his recent dominance at the track? Will Kyle Busch get his first Cup win of 2020? Can Jimmie Johnson break his long winless streak and get to Victory Lane for the eighth time at Texas? Feel free […]

NASCAR DFS Prop Picks: O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 - Monkey Knife Fight

On Sunday, the NASCAR Cup Series heads to Texas Motor Speedway. or as I like to call it "that racetrack that's like 20 minutes from my apartment." The 1.5-mile track has been dominated by Kevin Harvick recently, as he's won three of the last five races here. Our friends at Monkey Knife Fight offer some […]

NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Texas My Bariatric Solutions 300 (7/19/20)

Well, Kyle Busch is in a lower series race again. It's been a little bit since we've dealt with this, but it's a reality again for Saturday's NASCAR Xfinity Series My Bariatric Solutions 300 at Texas Motor Speedway. Busch's return means one of two things for lineup building. The first is that you go full […]

NASCAR Truck Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Texas Vankor 250 (7/18/20)

Like the Xfinity Series race earlier in the day, Saturday's NASCAR Truck Series race at Texas Motor Speedway will feature the return of Kyle Busch to the series. That's not quite the earth-shattering thing it is in Xfinity, as our projections have Busch scoring 105 DFS points in Xfinity and just 84 in Trucks, it […]

NASCAR DFS Prop Picks: NASCAR All-Star Race - Monkey Knife Fight

This Wednesday is the NASCAR All-Star Race at Bristol Motor Speedway. This will mark the first time since 1986 that this race was run at a track other than Charlotte Motor Speedway, and we should be in for an exciting race under the lights at one of NASCAR's most exciting tracks. Our friends at Monkey […]

Martin Truex Jr. Looks For Third Kentucky Victory

Martin Truex Jr. feels underpriced this week. A two-time winner at Kentucky Speedway, the driver of the Joe Gibbs Racing 19 car is DraftKing's ninth-highest priced driver and FanDuel's fifth. The latter feels appropriate, but Truex has a chance to be a valuable DFS option on the former platform. In wins here in 2017 and […]

Matt DiBenedetto Is Solid Value Play At Kentucky

Because he's never been in equipment as good as his current Wood Brothers Racing ride, it's hard to judge Matt DiBenedetto's past results at Kentucky Speedway. But in the second-best car he's driven in the Cup Series, DiBenedetto finished 16th here last year. Factor in that he's shown speed at intermediate tracks in 2020 and […]

William Byron Looking For First Top 10 At Kentucky

Hendrick Motorsports driver William Byron has run a pair of Cup Series races at Kentucky Speedway, resulting in a best finish of 18th last season. Byron's Xfinity results at the track included one top 10, but overall the young driver of the 24 car just hasn't managed to put together a strong run at the […]

Alex Bowman Hasn't Had Success At Kentucky

When Hendrick Motorsports driver Alex Bowman straps into the 88 car to start Sunday's Quaker State 400 at Kentucky Speedway, he'll be chasing his first-ever top 10 result at the track. And while some encouraging runs in lower series races at the track in the past suggest that Bowman can be successful here, it's hard […]

NASCAR Research Station: DraftKings, FanDuel DFS Lineup Picks - Quaker State 400

A weird week of racing at Kentucky is capped off on Sunday with the Quaker State 400. Unless, uhh, it rains a little too much... Anyway, some storylines: Jimmie Johnson is back in the 48 after a one-week absence due to COVID-19. The All-Star race is coming up on the 15th and the cars will […]

Early ADP Variations: Yahoo's Overvalued and Undervalued Players

Every fantasy football platform is different. There are the obvious ways they differ -- the way their apps look, the different drafting interfaces, etc. -- but there are also less obvious ways they differ. One of those ways is how their rankings and ADP look. Because there's no such thing as a universal rankings order […]

NASCAR Truck Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Kentucky Buckle Up In Your Truck 225 (7/11/20)

In this new, fast-paced world of NASCAR doubleheaders and mid-week races, it seems impossible that we haven't had a Truck Series race since June 28th. But it's true, and after a brief hiatus for July 4th weekend, the series returns to action on Saturday for the Buckle Up In Your Truck 225 at Kentucky Speedway. […]

Don't Let Go: Players to Hold in Dynasty

Dynasty leagues require a lot of patience. After all, building a consistent, winning team takes time. It takes a keen eye for talent. It takes luck. And it takes the ability to recognize that sometimes you have to use a roster spot on someone who won't give you much in the short term, but who […]
