Josh Berry Isn't a Great DFS Option at Charlotte

Qualifying hasn't been Josh Berry's strong suit this season, so the fact that his No. 4 Ford will start from 13th in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte is definitely noteworthy. Berry hasn't been flashy many times this year, but he's coming off of a podium finish at Darlington and looking to continue that momentum […]

Justin Haley Looking to Keep Momentum Rolling at Charlotte

Keep an eye on Justin Haley in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Fresh off of his first top-10 finish of the season (a ninth-place run at Darlington), the Rick Ware Racing driver went out and qualified 22nd for this weekend's race--his second-best qualifying effort of the season thus far. As far as […]

Happy Sunday, RotoBallers! I'm excited to be covering another fun DFS slate.

Ryan Preece Not On Fire But Improving For Charlotte

Ryan Preece has not had the greatest 2024 season. The Stewart-Haas Racing driver does have a career best average finish of 20.5. Also, he did have a +9 place differential at Darlington a couple weeks ago. When his car is not on fire (see Dover), the No. 41 Ford has shown some promise. Preece has […]

Todd Gilliland Has DFS Place Differential Upside at Charlotte

Todd Gilliland qualified way back in 35th-place for this weekend's Coca-Cola 600, which should scream one thing into the minds of DFS players: Place Differential potential. Gilliland hasn't been amazing on the intermediate tracks this season, but he hasn't been awful either, posting results of 24th at Las Vegas, 31st at Texas, and 14th (most […]

Erik Jones Still Mending From Injuries

Erik Jones is still fully recovering from that crash at Talladega. The Legacy Motor Club Toyota driver starts the Coca-Cola 600 from the 34th position. Jones qualified 0.94 seconds off from the pole. The No. 43 car bled tenths of seconds off the turns and in practice was even more off. Jones has one Top […]

Daniel Hemric Trying To Right Things At Charlotte

Daniel Hemric has kept the Kaulig Racing car on the track the past two races. However, the No. 31 Chevy finished 30th or worse at Darlington and Kansas. Did a week off from the points grind help? Hemric starts 24th on Sunday at Charlotte. It does seem that the Kaulig car gets caught in traffic […]

Fantasy Football Wide Receivers You Must Draft in 2024 - Part I

Running backs are so 2010, am I right? Fantasy football has completely moved on. Now, all we want are the receivers. How many receivers are too many? That’s not actually a thing.

Five Fantasy Football Risers on New Teams in 2024

With free agency and the draft now complete and OTAs heating up, NFL roster outlooks are looking a lot more clear than they were at the end of the 2023 season. Some players who switched teams will see a boost to their fantasy football value, while others will take on lesser roles in their new […]

Michael McDowell Could Surprise With Another Top 10 at Charlotte

With track position being so important with this Next Gen car, qualifying has become even more important in the NASCAR Cup Series. The good thing for Michael McDowell is that he is having a career year when it comes to qualifying, as his average starting position this season is 13.1--significantly better than his career average […]

Austin Dillon Looks To Charlotte For Good Results

Austin Dillon is hoping for good fortune on Sunday at the Coca-Cola 600. Charlotte is a track where the Richard Childress Racing driver has done well. The No. 3 Chevy has seen two Top 10 results in the past three races at Charlotte. That includes a sixth in 2021 and a ninth in 2023 after […]

Austin Cindric Not Consistent In Good Way At Charlotte

Austin Cindric has had two appearances at Charlotte in the past three seasons. The Team Penske driver has two DNF's and an average finish of 32.5. Cindric's average start in those races was 13.5 and he qualified 17th for Sunday's Coca-Cola 600. The No. 2 Ford was right behind teammate Ryan Blaney during qualifying (16th) […]

Michael Kopech - Closers and Saves Fantasy Baseball Waiver Wire Pickups (Week 10)

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 35% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The hard-throwing Michael Kopech has enjoyed success this season as a reliever, after struggling through control issues and home run troubles for much of the 2023 season as a starter for the Chicago White Sox. He has just five saves on the year, […]

Harrison Burton Needs To Survive To Thrive

Harrison Burton has had a season to forget for Wood Brothers Racing. That continued over the weekend as Burton's No. 21 Ford qualified 32nd on Sunday. However, the Coca-Cola 600 has been a bit kind to the driver. His average start at Charlotte was 15th however in his two NASCAR Cup appearances. This does add […]

Fantasy Baseball Closers and Saves Waiver Wire Report for Week 10

Another week gone by, and this one was a lot less eventful, at least bullpen-wise. No major changes, no huge milestones, no trades. But that doesn't mean there weren't saves! That doesn't mean a few committees haven't started becoming more and more clear. That doesn't mean a closer who looked to be on his way […]

Ricky Tiedemann - Fantasy Baseball Prospects Waiver Wire Stashes (Week 10)

BALLER MOVE: Stash in Deeper Leagues CALL-UP ETA: July ANALYSIS: The Blue Jays' top pitching prospect Ricky Tiedemann is getting closer to returning to game action in the minors.

Shane van Gisbergen Making Non-Drafting Oval Debut at Charlotte

Shane van Gisbergen is making his first NASCAR Cup Series start on a non-drafting oval in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600, so it's difficult to predict his performance. His only previous race at Charlotte came in yesterday's BetMGM 300 Xfinity Series race, where he drove from 29th to 15th, but both of his teammates, A.J. Allmendinger […]

Daniel Suarez May Benefit From Trackhouse's Intermediate Speed, but Don't Count On It

On paper, Daniel Suárez seems like one of the best longshot candidates in this weekend's Coca-Cola 600. Both his win at Atlanta and his only other top-five this season (at Texas) came on high-banked intermediates just like Charlotte. Suárez qualified 14th for tonight's event, giving him his best starting position on a non-drafting track this […]

Charlotte Might be Zane Smith's Best Shot for a Solid Run

Zane Smith's rookie season has admittedly been very rocky, as he has no top-10s, no laps led, and the worst speed percentile amongst full-timers at 21.96, not to mention that his teammates, Corey LaJoie and fellow rookie Carson Hocevar, outrun him nearly every race weekend. However, Charlotte might be one of Smith's best opportunities to […]

John Hunter Nemechek Still Struggling to Figure Out Next Gen Car on Intermediates

John Hunter Nemechek qualified 26th for this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Although he did outqualify his teammate, Erik Jones, don't expect either of the Legacy Motor Club cars to do much in the race. Jones is likely still feeling the brunt of his injury from Talladega, while Nemechek has been mediocre for […]

Corey LaJoie Likely to Have One of His Best Runs of the Season... If He Can Keep It Clean

Corey LaJoie has faced more criticism than any other NASCAR driver this year because he's been consistently outrun by his rookie teammate, Carson Hocevar, but that's more likely a result of fans underrating Hocevar than overrating LaJoie. LaJoie's performance has still been a lot closer to Hocevar's than Zane Smith's by nearly all metrics. LaJoie […]

Intermediates Haven't Been Brad Keselowski's Strong Suit With Next Gen Chassis

Although Brad Keselowski has won twice at Charlotte, he probably isn't one of the favorites for tonight's Coca-Cola 600 despite winning the last points race at Darlington and finishing second at Texas in the last high-banked intermediate race. Keselowski has struggled in qualifying all year and qualified 30th this weekend, matching his worst starting position […]

Ross Chastain Remains Strong on Intermediates Despite Decline in Speed Elsewhere

Trackhouse Racing has struggled to maintain its speed this year, as Ross Chastain has factored for the lead significantly less often than in 2022 and 2023 while his teammate, Daniel Suárez, has had an even more staggering decline. However, Charlotte is one of the likeliest tracks where Chastain could turn it around. He's been significantly […]

Chris Buescher Blows Tire in Practice, Will Start 39th at Charlotte

After blowing a tire in practice, Chris Buescher elected to not set a qualifying time for this weekend's Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte because he would have to start in the back after switching to a backup car anyway; he will be starting 39th in tonight's race. Although Charlotte isn't one of Buescher's absolute best tracks, […]
