Fantasy Report: 3M Performance 400

After my ghastly fantasy performance last week I look to be on the rebound this week at Michigan International Speedway. It is getting close to the end so now is time for desperate measures. Lets take a look at our picks …

Erik’s picks:

Jimmie Johnson✔, Carl Edwards, Kyle Busch✔, Dale Earnhardt Jr.✔, Greg Biffle, Kasey Kahne, Marcos Ambrose✔ and Travis Kvapil.

Brandon’s picks:

Tony Stewart✔, Carl Edwards, Mark Martin✔, Kasey Kahne✔, Dale Earnhardt Jr., David Ragan, Paul Menard✔, and AJ Allmendinger.

Hint: If your team is low in the standings or has taken a hard hit like I did last week now is the time to make a move. I only have one more start with Kyle Busch and Dale Jr. but now is the best time to use them. Do what it takes to give yourself some space between your competitors. If you wait to long to use them it could already be to late to make that end of the season push.

Kahne you believe it?: Kasey has had several top fives at Michigan over the years. I am keeping him on the list in case he looks strong this week in practice. If not based on his past performance I might take a gamble on him. Don’t rule out Jimmie Johnson either. He is looking for another championship and with the Chase close you can bet he will be on his A game.
