B.J. McLeod Will Ride Around The Back, But Be A Solid Punt Play For Talladega
2 months agoB.J. McLeod will start 38th during Sunday's YellaWood 500 at Talladega Superspeedway, which is the worst starting position ever for him during his Cup career at the Alabama track. In eight previous races at the site, McLeod has four top-30 finishes while scoring positive Place Differential in each of the last seven. This week marks McLeod's seventh start of the year on a part-time schedule, which includes three top-25 finishes across two teams. At drafting tracks, McLeod has four finishes with positive PD this season, including a finish of 19th, his best of the year during the summer Daytona race. Expect McLeod to ride around in the back for most of the race to avoid crashes, and with his incredibly high upside, he is worth consideration as a punt play who will provide cap flexibility for DFS lineups, especially in cash games
