Kurt Busch Dangerous Wildcard Again at Pocono

Kurt Busch finds himself right on the bubble for the chase as two top-ten finishes have paved the way (8th at Nashville last week). His car is performing better but the driver's mental attitude has been noticed. The elder Busch is going for wins and that confidence is affecting. He starts in eighth this week […]


Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Could Lurk Around at Pocono

The back-to-back weekend races may actually favor Ricky Stenhouse Jr. this weekend. He starts seventh on Saturday behind a strong sixth-place result at Nashville last week. Combine that with a 12th at Charlotte a few weeks back and there is optimism for the JTG-Daugherty Racing driver. Was last week a fluke? Not necessarily. The No. […]


Ross Chastain Finding Right Mix at Right Time for Pocono

Ross Chastain nearly won at Nashville last week as his car was more than good enough to win if not for Kyle Larson's late surge. The previous history is almost irrelevant given Chastain starts sixth on Saturday (22nd or worse previously). For the Chip Ganassi Racing team driver, this comes down to how he handles […]


Kyle Busch Could Challenge for Win at Pocono

Kyle Busch had the car last week at Nashville to challenge Kyle Larson but the younger Busch was the victim of line and groove. He dropped just out of the top ten but expect the Joe Gibbs Racing driver to learn his lesson this week. Busch needs to work with fellow Joe Gibbs drivers a […]


Joey Logano May Be One to Watch at Pocono

Joey Logano dropped off a bit last week at Nashville but was able to save his car enough to still finish tenth. 2020 was a disaster for Logano at Pocono. Car issues kept him from truly contending and he finished off the lead lap in both races there. The Team Penske driver expects a better […]


Kevin Harvick Will Use Saturday Race As Practice for Sunday at Pocono

Kevin Harvick has done this before in these two-race weekend setups. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver nabbed a solid top-five finish at Nashville (started 12th). His car, by the end, looked quite good as it finally was getting the lift needed. Harvick ranks the best since 2018 at Pocono with five top-tens and a win in […]


William Byron Expects Another Top Ten at Pocono

William Byron has been so persistently consistent because he holds track position so well. Last week, Byron did not have the best race car. He started fourth and still managed a third-place result at Nashville. Byron has one of the best pit crews that were able to make a key air adjustment that helped the […]


Kyle Larson Favorite to Continue Dominance at Pocono

Kyle Larson is on one of those runs that would impress Jeff Gordon. He has won four straight races and was second in three before that. Discipline does not matter, package does not matter as the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver just adapts so well. The Saturday race features Larson on the pole which alone should […]


Stewart Cink Should See The Weekend At Travelers

Stewart Cink has been driving and putting just well enough to make the weekend, but after that, things have started to unravel. Since his win at the RBC Heritage, Cink has had one round where he shoots himself into trouble. As a result, it knocks him out of contention. The 48-year-old does not have the […]


Si Woo Kim A Guessing Game This Week At Travelers

Si Woo Kim is like building a mystery. The golfer put it all together for a tied-9th at The Memorial then hung around to finish 40th at the US Open despite a Sunday 74. Kim tends to show up around majors but not always at tournaments surrounding them. Hence, this week at Travelers may be […]


Brendan Steele Might Struggle At Travelers

Brendan Steele has not fared well in the last four tournaments he has entered, with his best finish being a T37 at the Memorial. He nearly missed the cut and finished 77th at the PGA. Steele then missed the cut at the US Open. The problem is that Steele just cannot do one thing exceedingly […]


Sam Burns Trying To Reset Himself At Travelers

Sam Burns has had a rough time of it the past month or so. In three tournaments, he withdrew, barely finished 50th, and missed the cut at the US Open. Majors are rough and Burns learned some rough lessons. Even The Memorial has its challenges. One thing was clear. The golfer just was not prepared […]


Lanto Griffin Misses Too Many Cuts To Be A Factor At Travelers

Lanto Griffin might make the weekend at the Travelers, but there have been so many missed cuts, stemming from his inability to navigate around the greens. His strokes gained around the green rank an awful 181st on tour (-0.209). So while his putting is more than respectable along with other parts of his game, Griffin […]


Cameron Tringale Has Decent Upside At Travelers This Week

Cameron Tringale can shoot under par on Sundays, which seems to be the plan lately for him. Getting to Sundays, however, can be an adventure. Tringale shot 68, 69 and 70 in his last three final rounds. That kept him in the top five at the Valspar (third) and the top 32 at the Charles […]


Adam Hadwin All Over The Place Entering Travelers

It is anyone's guess to try and figure out Adam Hadwin. His long game is good enough to compete most weeks and his eighth at the Charles Schwab was a testament to that around the green game. The problem is it seems he cannot consistently put it all together for something close to four rounds. […]


Ian Poulter Must Putt Well To Have A Shot At Travelers

The putter and his decent drives deserted Ian Poulter a bit at the US Open and PGA tournaments. That cost him a couple of top-20 finishes, at the very least. He fared much better at the Charles Schwab, where he nearly won the whole darn thing behind a weekend where he shot 64-68. It would […]


Tony Finau Should Improve At Travelers

Tony Finau entered last Thursday morning with a decent chance to contend at the US Open. He walked out of Torrey Pines South Friday evening missing the cut. Shooting 74 on Thursday was not bad but the 76 on Friday was. It left Finau scratching his head plenty. Maybe The Memorial was a harbinger of […]


Adam Scott Could Stick Around At Travelers

Adam Scott has had a bit of an adventure in 2021. Last week, he was up and down with a 75 in Round 2 and Round 4 derailing his weekend. It was not a complete loss but Scott wound up 35th whereas shooting even-par might have kept him at least in the top 20. The […]


Patrick Reed Might Contend At Travelers If He Starts Well

Patrick Reed has kind of been the opposite of most of the top golfers lately. He has started slowly in tournaments before coming on either on Saturday or Sunday. Last week, Reed was okay until Sunday when he fired off a 67 to backdoor himself into a tie for 19th result at the US Open. […]


Bryson DeChambeau Trying To Find Game Again At Travelers

Bryson DeChambeau was set up for an excellent finish at the US Open, but then disaster struck. That seemed to be a bit of a theme from last Sunday. He shot a final-round 77, falling right out of the top 20 (T26). Since March, DeChambeau has had a bit of a rough time. He had […]


Dustin Johnson May Bounce Back At Travelers Championship

It was a rough Sunday for Dustin Johnson. He shot a final-round 74 and nearly finished out of the top 20 at the US Open. While the tied for 19th result was not horrible, it dropped him to second in the world rankings. That has been kind of a pattern lately for Johnson who missed […]

We bring you the final Stanley Cup Semifinal playoff edition of NHL DFS on PrizePicks and that means our friends over at PrizePicks have a TON of great props we can look to take advantage of. PrizePicks is a great DFS props site where you can choose to select plays in […]


Kevin Harvick Posts Top Five Result at Ally 400

Kevin Harvick was the second-best Stewart Haas Racing driver on Sunday just behind Aric Almirola. However, that was good enough for a fifth-place finish at Nashville. Harvick's Ford was not catching the Chevy's either but this was his best result in six races. That seemed to be a theme on Sunday as several previously struggling […]


Aric Almirola Took Pole then Fourth Place at Nashville

Aric Almirola shocked a few people with his pole qualifying run on Sunday morning then he proceeded to back it up. Almirola nabbed a fourth-place result at the Ally 400 which was a season-best. It had been a long struggle all season for the No. 10 Ford. Even with the finish, Almirola felt he could […]


William Byron Consistent Again, Results in Third Place At Nashville

William Byron almost had enough to make it a 1-2 finish for Hendrick Motorsports Racing. In the end, Ross Chastain got around him and pulled away. Nonetheless, the No. 24 car ended up in third. That was not a bad result at the Ally 400. Byron rallied from the rear of the field to 17th […]


Ross Chastain Found Way Up Field, Finished Second At Nashville

Ross Chastain drove a great race tactic-wise and even passed William Byron to boot. In the end, he was caught in no man's land but finished second place to Kyle Larson. Chastain did trim Larson's lead to just over four seconds but could get no closer. The No. 42 Chevy even pulled away from Byron […]


Chase Elliott Gets Disqualified At Nashville

This was just something one did not expect from the Chase Elliott car but it happened. The No. 9 car was indeed disqualified Sunday evening for having five loose lug nuts on one tire. That's right. All five lug nuts were not on properly. Elliott even lost the points from the Stage 1 win and […]


Kyle Larson Wins Third Straight Race, This Time At Nashville

Kyle Larson has been unstoppable for the last month and was again at Nashville on Sunday. He won the Ally 400 by more than four seconds over Ross Chastain. The victory almost gave Larson the outright Cup Series lead. However, Denny Hamlin holds on to it for now with a nine-point edge. The No.5 car […]

NASCAR DFS Prop Picks: Ally 400 - Monkey Knife Fight

Sunday afternoon features the Ally 400 from Nashville Superspeedway just outside of Nashville. Monkey Knife Fight has an extremely easy fantasy point system: 0.1 points for each lap led and then a set amount of points for their position (20 for 1st place, 19 for 2nd place, 18 for 3rd, and so on). Our friends […]
