With two road courses and Daytona left in the seven races before the NASCAR playoffs begin, A.J. Allmendinger has not been totally eliminated from playoff contention as he is only 43 points behind Bubba Wallace for the final playoff transfer spot and he is much better on road courses than the two drivers he is chasing, Wallace and Ryan Preece. He might view himself as being in a must-win scenario and focusing on getting stage points, but he declined to do that at the Chicago Street Course last week and still finished fifth. Since it seems more likely he'll repeat the latter strategy, he probably won't lead many laps and he'll probably be stuck behind Shane van Gisbergen all day. He's still worth starting since he's likelier to overachieve his DFS salary expectations more than most drivers, particularly in a race where few road course stars qualified poorly, but he probably isn't quite the best option.--Sean Wrona - RotoBaller
