I like the Atlanta Braves as a home favorite here in the opener of this National League Divisional Series with the St. Louis Cardinals.

The Cards were just one game above .500 on the road during the regular season and right-hander Miles Mikolas (9-14, 4.16 ERA) went 4-8 with a 5.40 ERA in his seven road starts. As for Braves starter Dallas Keuchel (8-8, 3.75 ERA), the left-hander posted a 2.74 ERA in 10 home starts and he is 4-2 with a 3.31 ERA in 10 career postseason outings while this will be Mikolas playoff debut.

The Braves won four of six meetings during the regular season and I think this is a good enough price to back the home team to get it done.

10* play on Atlanta Braves.
