Harvick and Hamlin will be fairly heavy chalk — I’m not opposed to either, but I don’t believe you need to roster both.
The chalk driver who I will ignore the Michigan history of is Joey Logano, as I have not seen him perform nearly as well without the benefit of practice. Logano is a fade for me except as a lower percentage multi-entry play.
I will have Harvick, Truex, Kurt Busch, Jones and Ty Dillon on the highest percentage of my lineups, but as I run multi-entry contests, I will have exposure to everyone mentioned above.
