Welcome to the NASCAR DFS Pit Stop for Friday night’s Xfinity Series race from Richmond Raceway! Just like the Truck Series race from Thursday night, we have 250 laps in this race meaning we have 187.5 dominator points in this race on Friday as well. In other news, Kyle Busch ($17,000) is back in the Xfinity Series this weekend and we have to pay a hefty price to fit him in. If you play cash games, I think he is a must-play starting from the 29th position. We know Kyle will get to the front at some point and lead some laps and potentially win. DraftKings did give us some decent plays in the bottom of the value tier that makes it feasible to use Busch and construct a good lineup.
NASCAR DFS: Dominators
If you aren’t rostering Kyle Busch for this race then these are the drivers I would consider from the top tier.
Justin Allgaier ($10,400)
Starting Position: 16th
Allgaier has had some bad runs the previous two races, but before that he had four top 10 finishes in the last 5 races. In 7 races at Richmond since joining JRM, Allgaier has five top 10 finishes here, as well as four top 5’s. I think Allgaier, along with Austin Cindric ($10,900) will push Kyle for the win on Friday.
Noah Gragson ($9,800)
Starting Position: 4th
Gragson is getting hot at the right time in the season with the playoffs approaching. Over the last six Xfinity series races, Gragson has five finishes of 7th or better. Gragson is one my favorite GPP plays on this slate and he will probably come in severely under owned even at his low price.
Other Options: Austin Cindric ($10,900), Chase Briscoe ($11,500)
NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier
Justin Haley ($9,100)
Starting Position: 10th
Justin Haley is quietly having one of the best years in the Xfinity Series. He doesn’t get talked about like the guys on the bigger teams (Cindric , Briscoe, Gragson, Allgaier) do but he should. Only four drivers in the series have more top 10’s then Haley does this season and I think his 15th top 10 will happen on Friday night. Haley has only driven in two Xfinity races here, both came in 2019, and finished 10th and 17th.
Kaz Grala ($8,400)
Starting Position: 24th
Grala is back in the Richard Childress Chevy for Friday’s race and he is one of the top place differential plays for me. This will be Grala’s third race in this car in 2020 with finishes of 13th and 4th in his previous 2 races. In this same race last season Grala came home with a 14th place finish in the #21 RCR Chevy. If we can get a similar finish then we should be happy with that result.
Ryan Sieg ($7,500)
Starting Position: 6th
Sieg, like Gragson, is a pure GPP play on this slate. With Sieg starting from the P6 he doesn’t offer much upside but he will be low owned and has top 5 potential. Last season Sieg had his best career finishes at Richmond when he finished 12th and 5th .
