Y'all, we only have two more weeks of NASCAR action left this season, so you know what that means?
That it's time to get that DraftKings money before it's too late!
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 Truck Series. Let's look at some NASCAR Truck Series DFS lineup picks for the NASCAR Hall of Fame 200 on DraftKings. Be sure to also check out our NASCAR Premium Tools for Truck Series including our DFS Lineup Optimizer and powerful Research Station.
Truck Series 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.
Brett Moffitt #23 ($11,400)
Starting 4th
A ton of people will be playing Parker Kligerman this week for the place differential points since he starts 37th. But I want to avoid the 75 truck and try to build the lineup that will hit if Kligerman is unable to turn the PD upside into actual production, and it starts with Brett Moffitt.
Before crashing out in the second Martinsville race last year and finishing 29th, Moffitt had three consecutive top three finishes here. He didn't manage to lead a lap in any of those, but then he led 80 laps before crashing last season. At short tracks this season, Moffitt has run well, placing fourth at Richmond and then second at Bristol. He led 117 of 200 laps at Bristol. I think there's a great chance Moffitt wins his first short track race of the season this week.
Sam Mayer #24 ($10,100)
Starting 22nd
He's back! Mayer makes his fifth Truck Series start of the season this week and has proven to be a strong contender when he's in this 24 truck. He won the last time he was in it, leading 30 laps at Bristol. He also led 24 laps and finished fourth at WWT Raceway.
Mayer's a good driver to go to for PD points. He's in a strong truck that should contend for a top five and starts outside of the top 20. I'm worried he ends up being a little too chalky, but chalk might be fine in a lineup where you avoid the ultimate chalk of Kligerman.

Todd Gilliland #38 ($8,900)
Starting 20th
Last year, Gilliland won his first Truck Series race here, leading 11 laps in the Kyle Busch Motorsports 4 truck.
This 38 isn't as good as that truck was, and Gilliland hasn't had a top 10 since Darlington. He's finished 13th or worse in six consecutive races, including both Richmond and Bristol. That's the downside.
The upside? Gilliland starts 20th and has an average finish of 15.7 despite five DNFs. He should be able to finish in the top 15 with relative ease, with an outside shot at getting another top 10. Let's not discount that he's never finished worse than 15th here and has a pair of top fives.
Spencer Davis #11 ($8,000)
Starting 36th
Davis is like bargain basement Kligerman. He starts 36th, just one spot ahead of that 75, and he doesn't have the same upside when it comes to where he finishes, but he does have a good amount of upside.
Davis has run 12 races this year, with an average finish of 21.2. Hitting that average would already be a strong DFS day for this team. But he's also shown top 15 potential at times, and was 16th at Dover, which is basically the closest comparable track to Martinsville of the races he's run this year.
Davis was 20th at this track last year.
Trevor Bayne #45 ($6,600)
Starting 21st
Have to say I don't feel as good about Bayne as I wish I did, but he does have a Cup Series top 10 here.
Bayne's a good price and starts far enough back to justify playing him, as he does have a pair of top 10s this season in this Niece Motorsports truck. He also initially finished fifth at Bristol before being disqualified. Bayne has top 10 upside, even if Niece hasn't been the best team this year. Maybe don't go crazy on playing Bayne, but the upside is there, even if he's had a few races this year where things haven't gone his way, with three finishes of 27th or worse. Boom/bust kind of play.
Codie Rohrbaugh #9 ($4,900)
Starting 35th
This is such an insane price.
Rohrbaugh has an average finish of 22.9 this season. He finished sixth at Richmond. If he keeps this truck out of the wall, he seems like a lock for a top 25 finish, with a good chance at a top 20.
Also, he finished 10th in this race last season! Rohrbaugh isn't a backmarker truck, but he's being priced like he is! This might be my favorite play of this entire slate, because he's only $4,900. Drivers like Natalie Decker, Spencer Boyd, and Jordan Anderson all cost more than Rohrbaugh despite significantly less upside.
