NASCAR One & Done Picks for Pocono

The Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series will compete at Pocono Raceway in the Gander Outdoors 400. This will be the second trip to the Tricky Triangle in the last seven weeks. Last time I had Jamie McMurray and he finished 15^th. My goal is the One & Done game is to have drivers finish in the top 15 each week. I think the pick this week can finish in the top 15 at Pocono.

Here are my picks for New Pocono…

Pocono	Chris Buescher	?	Pocono	Daniel Suarez	?

We cannot use the top drivers in every race in the One & Done game so sometimes we need to take a chance with the lower tier drivers. This is one of those weeks. Pit strategy often comes into play at Pocono because teams can short pit to put on fresher tires without going a lap down since the track is so large. I expect that to happen Sunday. My One & Done pick used pit strategy before at the Tricky Triangle to steal a win and I am hoping he does it again this week.

Chris Buescher has one win in the MENCS and it came at Pocono. Usually drivers get motivated to run well at the tracks where they have wins at. Buescher has finished 3 of his last 4 races at the Tricky Triangle in the top 19. He finished 17^th in the June race at Pocono. I will gladly take another 17^th-place finish from him Sunday.

Good luck this week!
