Ryan Blaney Is Getting Better at Darlington
Historically, Darlington Raceway has been a weak spot on the schedule for Ryan Blaney. Over 18 career starts at "The Lady in Black," Blaney has a middle-of-the-road average finish (18.7) and just four top-10 finishes. And despite all that time on track, Blaney has only led 24 laps in his career at this track. With that being said, the Team Penske driver is getting better, and in the spring race here last season, he walked away with a career-best fifth-place finish. This weekend, the No. 12 Ford will roll off the starting grid from seventh place, and Blaney looked to have good long-run speed in practice (seventh-fastest in 30-lap average) to challenge for a top-10 result. In DFS, Blaney is an interesting play at his $10,200 salary on DraftKings. He's definitely a viable option, though, as he has some Place Differential upside, and has a knack for racking up fastest laps late in the run at intermediate tracks.
