Stewart-Haas Racing's Aric Almirola continued his good fortunes by drawing the pole for Sunday's O'Reilly Auto Parts 500 at Texas Motor Speedway. Almirola is currently on the best stretch of his career, coming into Texas with six straight top-10 finishes. Last week at Kentucky, Almirola led a race-high 128 laps before finishing eighth. In 18 career starts at Texas, Almirola only has four top-10 finishes, but he also has only been driving for Stewart-Haas for four of those starts. In those four starts since 2018, Almirola has three top-10s, including a second-place finish in last fall's race, where he led 62 laps. With the roll Almirola has been on, and his average cost, he would be a solid driver to play in DFS. Of course, Almirola has no position differential upside, starting at the front, so players would have to bank on him leading some early laps and scoring his seventh-straight top-10 finish.--John Pitucci - RotoBaller
