Arizona betting apps have the Los Angeles Dodgers as the top favorite to win the World Series with odds of +400, while Atlanta is close behind at +650.

Preseason totals for the D’backs often serve as a reliable predictor.

Since 2014, the D’backs have surpassed their preseason win total five times, with the last two seasons being particularly successful. On the flip side, there have also been five instances where Arizona fell short of their preseason win total, most notably in the 2021 season when they finished with a disappointing record of 52-110 despite being projected to win 75.5 games.

In the last ten years, the Diamondbacks’ highest number of wins before a season was 85 in 2018, but they finished with a record of 82-80. This year, ESPN BET Arizona oddsmakers have set their win total at 83.5, with odds of +750 to win the NL West.

Torey Lovullo’s team is ranked second in the divisional race by ESPN BET, with the highest odds of winning after the Los Angeles Dodgers (-375) and ahead of San Diego (+900), San Francisco (+1000), and Colorado (+10000).

If Lovullo and his team can exceed the D’backs’ preseason win total of 83.5, it would mark the first time since 2006-2008 that the franchise has accomplished this for three straight seasons.
