Dale Jr finished 5th and 15th in practice and qualified 15th, Joey 9th and 23rd, qualifying 5th. Dale is racing in probably his best season ever, and I think tonight, after finishing 24th here in March, his worst finish in 13 years at Bristol, there will be a little extra motivation to perform well. Logano has not fared well at Bristol in the past. In the 11 times he has raced there, he has qualified in the Top 10, 9 times. He has only finished in the Top 10 twice, and he ranks 31st in active drivers at Bristol. Dale Jr is ranked 4th Best in Active Drivers at Bristol. I studied basically 3 match-ups all with Logano.....Dale Jr, Jimmie Johnson, and Denny Hamlin. All 3 look favorable to me, JJ is -140, Denny was +150 versus Logano. I guess you could say I picked the one in the middle, but the reality of this play is Dale can race here better than any of the other 3, in 29 starts he has 1 win, 7 Top 5's, 14 top 10's, and 25 Top 20's with an Average Start of 21st. That is pretty impressive and tells you he can drive this course, compared to Logano's 9 Top 10 Starts that he hasn't done much with.....JJ and Hamlin are Active 16th and 17th Best Drivers at Bristol, so I really didn't pick the middle, I picked the Best.

Dale Jr over Joey Logano for 3 Units to win 3.9 Units, +130

Good luck, RE. I hope to ride with ya but my book doesn't have matchup lines up yet. Looks like the race is in 6.5 hours too so I have no idea when I'll see 'em but I hope Dale brings you the cash either way!

Nice. I hit the -115 but waited on -135 since we have 6 hours til the race. I'll go finish up getting down on -110. Averaged on around +100 to +105.

Adding Detroit in Game 2 -145 for 2 units- If Verlander is telling the truth that he is good to go, he's had rest and will pitch against a team he is 8-1 with and ERA under 2 in his last 11 games against the Twin. Trevor May...not so good and with the Twin way up already in Game 1, surely the Tigers can salvage 1 Win.

Got 26-1 on Hamlin, would be a sweet hit. BOL.

And so, what's the deal? I know you're not supposed to root for players to get injured, but is it wrong to root for a Logano wreck? Not if he is physically unharmed, right? That's what I'm going with. :)

I think w all the runs scored the past two games the under would be the play in Detroit
