NASCAR Great American Getaway 400 long-shot predictions
Sleeper pick to win: Ty Gibbs
+1400 at DraftKings
Luck hasn't been on Ty Gibbs' side lately, as he's been involved in an accident in three of the last six points-paying races. But when he's kept his car in one piece, the results have been there.
Gibbs ran third at Watkins Glen, sixth at Charlotte, and 13th at Nashville in recent weeks, leading laps in all three events. He's capable of bringing that form north to Pocono, where he already owns a Top 5 from four prior starts.
The No. 54 driver led 21 laps in 2024 but his engine gave out, and then he ran 14th last year, a season where his form was much worse than it is now.
Sleeper pick to win: Bubba Wallace
+2200 at DraftKings
I gave out Bubba Wallace in this space last week, and he rewarded my confidence with a season-best third-place performance at Michigan. I'm going back to the well with the No. 23 driver at Pocono.
Wallace was collected in a wreck at "The Tricky Triangle" last year, but had finished 11th or better in three of his prior four starts here. That includes three stage placings and seven laps led.
The No. 23 started 34th last year, but qualified Top 10 in three of the prior four races here. A better starting spot could go a long way toward his cause on Sunday.
Sleeper pick to win: Erik Jones
+3500 at DraftKings
Continue sleeping on Erik Jones at your own peril.
Jones put together an incredible race to be second last week with a 105.3 rating, his best in a points-paying event in 2026. He's now run 13th or better in four straight races.
The No. 43 pilot has picked up points in six of the last eight stages at Pocono, finishing no worse than 14th with two Top 10s in that span.
