After back-to-back top-five finnishes, Ryan Preece is surprisingly still very much alive in the playoff race as he only sits 23 points behind his RFK Racing teammate Chris Buescher for the final playoff spot. You'd think based on Buescher's tendency to earn top-10 finishes on road courses like clockwork and Preece's historical mediocrity on these tracks that Buescher might be guaranteed to gain points, but you might be wrong. Lately, Buescher seems to fail to meet expectations while Preece exceeds expectations in most races, and Preece has had his best runs at a lot of different tracks this year. That might help him at a track where he finished ninth last year despite starting worse in that race than his 17th-place starting position on Sunday. Given Buescher's road-course prowess, it's likely the No. 41 team has put in more effort to keep up with him, and he might finish better than you expect and be a better DFS choice than you might think.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
