Josh Tomlin Provides Much-Needed Innings Out Of Bullpen

Atlanta Braves pitcher Josh Tomlin threw 4 1/3 innings of much-needed relief during the club's 12-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday. The veteran reliever came into the game in the first inning when veteran hurler Charlie Morton was unable to secure the third out. Tomlin allowed five hits and a walk but he […]

Ryan Newman Has Limited Potential On Sunday At Darlington

Ryan Newman will begin Sunday from the 20th position for the Goodyear 400. Last year, he finished 15th, 14th, and 15th at Darlington. The Roush Fenway Racing driver could end up right around that position again on Sunday. That potential place differential is a limited positive but one nonetheless. With Newman able to stay on […]

Charlie Morton Has Nightmare First Inning

Atlanta Braves pitcher Charlie Morton failed to get out of the first inning during the club's 12-2 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies on Friday night. The 37-year-old veteran hurler pitched just 2/3 of an inning and allowed four hits and two walks which led to six runs. The big blow against Morton was a two-out, […]

Alex Bowman Could Have Fast Car At Darlington On Sunday

Alex Bowman may come from the middle of the pack and surprise on Sunday. He enjoyed two top-ten finishes on the track in 2020 including a second-place finish. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver led 41 laps during that Spring installment. There is some concern because he started fourth and sixth in those races but Bowman […]

Ross Chastain May Have A Little DFS Potential At Darlington

Though Ross Chastain has not finished in the top ten since Daytona, he may still feature a little upside on Sunday at Darlington. This is not significant but Chastain has improved on his track position during all three appearances (+5. +3. and +5). Those are not significant gains but it is better than nothing. He […]

Kurt Busch Has Experience To Show DFS Upside At Darlington

Kurt Busch has performed pretty well at Darlington and could inch up the field on Sunday. The Chip Ganassi Racing driver has finished in the top ten five out of the last six appearances on the 1.366-mile track. Experience has served the elder Busch here well and starting 17th lends itself to place differential points. […]

Ryan Blaney Just Too Dicey To Consider At Darlington

Ryan Blaney and the Darlington track just do not mix. Even with better starting positions, the Team Penske driver has never shown the ability to come close to contending. The Goodyear 400 is likely to be no different this Sunday. He has a negative place differential in five of the last six races here. That […]

Daniel Suarez Not Likely A Factor DFS Wise At Darlington

Daniel Suarez has just one top ten finish this year. The TrackHouse Racing driver does start 15th this Sunday but that is where the optimism likely ends. Suarez at Darlington has not fared well in the Toyota car. The last three races have resulted in him not finishing on the lead lap for a variety […]

Michael McDowell Not Expected To Thrive At Darlington On Sunday

Little is expected of Michael McDowell on Sunday. The Front Row Motorsports driver has zero top-ten finishes at Darlington. Furthermore, the 1.366-mile track has seen him finish 16th for his best result. McDowell slid back late at Kansas last week and that trend may just continue this week. Any regression similar would again push him […]

Joey Logano May Feature Some Upside At Goodyear 400 Sunday

Joey Logano could generate a little bit of interest at Darlington on Sunday. He finished well during the last two installments last year (sixth and third place results). Starting 12th even opens the door a bit for some place differential upside. The Fall race saw the Team Penske driver make up ten spots (13th to […]

Chris Buescher Not Likely To Be Factor At Darlington

Chris Buescher was a victim of an unfortunate circumstance last week at Kansas. If not for some caution craziness, he may have easily finished in the top five or won. Buscher led 13 laps in the Roush Fenway Racing car. This week features a track that has not been kind to him in the past. […]

Tyler Reddick A Risky Choice At Darlington On Sunday

Tyler Reddick only raced on the Darlington track in 2020 so there are only three races to lean on. The first installment in the Spring showed that the Richard Childress Racing driver had the ability to contend. He finished seventh. However, the other two races saw Reddick not improve much on positioning (just one spot […]

Austin Dillon An Intriguing Option At Darlington On Sunday

Austin Dillon starts ninth on Sunday for the Goodyear 400. At Darlington in 2020, the Richard Childress Racing driver had a bit of an adventure. However, the final race saw him nearly take home the checkered flag. He finished in second place and simply ran out of time. Can Dillon come close to duplicating that […]

Matt DiBenedetto Might Have Favorable Result At Darlington

Matt DiBenedetto may be one of the best drivers right now that few know about. The Wood Brothers Racing driver has enjoyed top-ten finishes for the first time in his career. Furthermore, he starts eighth this week for the Goodyear 400. In eight appearances, DiBenedetto delivered two top ten results. The No. 21 does not […]

Chase Elliott A Wildcard At Darlington On Sunday

Chase Elliott could finish anywhere on Sunday at Darlington. He starts in sixth and the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has the ability to take the checkered flag. The problem is that he finished fourth, 38th, and 20th in 2020 on the 1.366-mile track. Elliott led 114 laps in the Fall race before falling back due […]

William Byron May Stay Near Front Sunday At Darlington

William Byron gets a fortunate fifth-place start on Sunday and showed some potential last year. He finished fifth in the Fall race at Darlington. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has only led three laps in five appearances but showed the ability to get into the top ten and stay near there in 2020. The No. […]

Wade Miley Throws No-Hitter

Cincinnati Reds left-hander Wade Miley threw a no-hitter in a 3-0 win over the Cleveland Indians on Friday. Miley struck out eight over nine scoreless innings to improve his record to 4-2 on the year. He took a perfect game into the sixth inning before issuing a walk. It goes into the books as the […]

Martin Truex Jr. In Better Position To Win At Darlington

Martin Truex Jr. had one of the fastest cars at Darlington in 2020 but could not finish the race despite three chances. He finished sixth and tenth in the first two installments. Then, in the Fall race, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver led 196 laps but a bit of bad luck forced him back to […]

Kyle Busch Expects To Stay Around Contenders At Darlington

Kyle Busch broke into the win column last week at Kansas on his birthday in the Buschy McBusch 400. This week, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver starts from the third position and should be able to stay around or near the front of the race. The younger Busch has 12 top-ten results in 18 races […]

Brad Keselowski A Decent Option At Darlington

The problem may be that Brad Keselowski starts from the pole on Sunday for the Goodyear 400. There is good news. The last time he started from the top was last May and he led 80 laps before finishing 13th. In the second installment, the Team Penske driver had a fourth-place result. While he truly […]

Kevin Harvick Starts In Row 1 Looking To Win At Darlington

The metrics were kind to Kevin Harvick this week as he starts second on Sunday at the Goodyear 400. His Stewart-Haas Racing car arguably should be the favorite (+700 to win) at Darlington just based on recent results. Harvick knows how to race this track. Last week at Kansas, the driver simply ran out of […]

Denny Hamlin Expects To Contend Yet Again At Darlington

When does Denny Hamlin finally breakthrough? He is second on most betting sites at +550 to take the checkered flag on Sunday. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has been incredible on the 1.366-mile track with 13 top ten finishes and three wins in 17 appearances. His average career finish is 7.5 which is the lowest […]

Kyle Larson Odds On Favorite To Win At Darlington

Kyle Larson is a +400 favorite to win on Sunday at Darlington. A big reason for that is his consistency. Larson has finished in the top ten five out of six times on the track "too tough to tame". In his last four races at Darlington, the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has led a total […]
