The Arizona Diamondbacks are riding a season-high 13-game winning streak, yet the Los Angeles Dodgers are still the overwhelming favorites to win the National League pennant despite their recent slide, according to oddsmakers.

The Diamondbacks find themselves at +1000 to win the NL pennant right now while the Dodgers are still the +110 chalk.
Peaking too early is a real concern for many potential playoff teams, just ask Los Angeles. The Dodgers closed out the first half of the season on fire and continued their hot streak right after the MLB All-Star break before recently losing 11 of 12. Meanwhile, Arizona still trails Los Angeles by double-digit games in the race for the NL West title.
