NASCAR Xfinity Series: DraftKings DFS Lineup Picks for Richmond Go Bowling 250 (9/11/20)

We've got a doubleheader weekend in the Xfinity Series, with Friday night's Richmond race, followed by Saturday morning's Richmond race.

Let's talk about the Friday night one. It features Kyle Busch, so that's...either good or not good, depending on what you want to do with your DFS lineup.

Here at RotoBaller, we want to help you make informed decisions about your DFS lineups, which is why I'll be breaking down the slates for the Xfinity Series. Let's look at some NASCAR Xfinity DFS lineup picks for the Go Bowling 250 on DraftKings.

Xfinity DFS Lineup Picks - DraftKings

Be sure to also check out all of our other weekly NASCAR DFS articles and analysis to help you set your optimal DFS lineups on DraftKings and FanDuel. 

Kyle Busch #54 ($17,000) - Starting 29th

SEVENTEEN THOUSAND.

And I'm still suggesting you play him, because Kyle Busch starting 29th in an Xfinity race is just such an easy decision. Barring a crash, he's scoring over 100 fantasy points.

Busch has run four Xfinity races this year. He has three top-three finishes including a win, plus a 37th at Texas after he was disqualified. For fantasy purposes, though, that race counted as a win for Busch, as he finished the race in first place before the disqualification.

So, basically, Busch is virtually assured of a top five and has like a 50 percent chance of winning this race if he doesn't crash out. That's going to result in a dominant fantasy day, especially with a lot of laps led and fastest lap points available.

 

Kaz Grala #21 ($8,400) - Starting 24th

This is just Grala's third start of the season in the 21. He was 13th at Kansas and fourth at Road America. The 21 car has had a couple of rough races in a row with Anthony Alfredo behind the wheel, but this team has also earned 10 top 10s so far this season.

Grala's in a car with top 10 upside and starts 24th. He's not going to have a Kyle Busch-like day, but if he gets this car running where it's capable of, he'll get at least a +10 place differential by the end of it. Love Grala this week.

 

Riley Herbst #18 ($7,400) - Starting 8th

In a Kyle Busch build, you have to take a chance on someone starting top 10 to stay up there because of the salary pricing. If this was the beginning of the season, taking that chance on Riley Herbst might be a bad move, but the young driver has really put things together lately. He's got five top 10s in a row, including a pair of fourth-place finishes in the last two races that the Xfinity Series has run.

We know Herbst is in a fast Joe Gibbs Racing car. If he keeps it clean, there's no reason to think he falls out of the top 10. Short tracks might not suit his driving style the best, but his car's speed should help make up for that.

 

Joe Graf Jr. #08 ($6,900) - Starting 23rd

I strongly wish Graf was starting like five places back because I'd feel a lot better about this. But hey, no one said roster construction with Kyle Busch as your top guy was going to be easy.

Graf's only had one top 20 in the last nine races. He has no top 10s this year and his average start and average finish are exactly the same: 24th.

I think the goal of playing Graf is to minimize the potential for negative place differential damage in this pricing tier -- Brandon Brown at $7,100 starts 13th, Jeffrey Earnhardt at $6,600 starts 17th -- and hope that he keeps the car clean and moves up to around 20th. For some higher risk and higher reward, you could go $200 cheaper with Vinnie Miller.

 

Joey Gase #07 ($5,400) - Starting 31st

Yep, we're playing both of the SS-Green Light cars today.

This will be the first race for Gase in this car. It's usually been a 15th to 25th place car at most tracks, so you're hoping Gase can finish in that range. With a 31st place starting spot, there's good room for positive place differential.

I think the upside here makes Gase a virtual must play to pair with Kyle Busch. You need upside guys. He's an upside guy.

 

Tommy Joe Martins #44 ($4,800) - Starting 21st

Another "ugh, why can't he be starting farther back to give him more upside" guy.

Martins has been running well. He has top 20 finishes in six of the last eight races, and it's that consistency that makes him a solid play. With this final spot, you just need someone who you can trust to not make a big mistake, and based on recent results, Martins is probably that guy. And hey, this is a really low price for someone who's been getting the finishes that Tommy Joe Martins has been getting lately.
