Austin Cindric Qualifies Second at Gateway, Now a Risky DFS Pick
3 months agoWorld Wide Technology Raceway (otherwise known as Gateway) is one track where Austin Cindric has actually kind of excelled at in the Cup Series. In his two starts here, Cindric has finished 11th and 13th, which easily puts Gateway near the top in terms of average finish at a particular track for the Team Penske driver. Knowing this, we knew that Cindric would be a sleeper pick on Sunday, and it's looking even more so after he qualified second for the Enjoy Illinois 300. While that is definitely a huge positive for the No. 2 team, it does make Cindric a very risky DFS pick in DraftKings. However, at only $6,200 in salary, it won't take much for Cindric to be worth taking the risk on this Sunday. If he leads early and finishes inside the top 10, Cindric could definitely end up being a great value pick on this DraftKings slate.
