The Diamondbacks took the baseball world by storm before the Winter Meetings with the signing of pitcher Zack Greinke and then the trade for Shelby Miller during the meetings.

The odds makers also took notice.

The D-backs are 20/1 to win the 2016 World Series, according to Bovada sports book. The D-backs started the off-season with 50-1 odds. The Cubs and Giants both are 6/1.

Las Vegas Super Book on Dec. 9 had the D-backs at 9/1 to win the NL pennant. That was before the Cubs added outfielder Jason Heyward and the Giants added right-hander Johnny Cueto.
