Sitting in first place in the NL West division standings, the Arizona Diamondbacks will be looking to strengthen that lofty position as they continue their MLB betting series on the road on Wednesday against another first-place club, the Philadelphia Phillies.

The D-Backs have surged ahead of the San Francisco Giants in the NL West standings, making them a lucrative option against the MLB lines at the Bodog Sportsbook over the past week.

That streak of success still doesn't have Arizona in the same ballpark as Philadelphia on the MLB futures lists. The Diamondbacks are listed at 25/1 on the World Series odds right now, and at 10/1 to claim the NL Pennant in October.

The Phillies, meanwhile, are favorites at 2/1 to win the World Series and 4/5 to bring home the National League Pennant.

Cliff Lee (12-7, 2.83 ERA) has been a big part of Philadelphia's success this season and is slated to take to the mound at home on Wednesday night against Arizona. The lefthander has won three straight starts and beat the Dodgers last time out after giving up just four hits and fanning 10 over eight shutout innings.

Lee pitched in Arizona back on April 25, taking a loss that day after surrendering four runs on five hits over seven innings of work.

Joe Saunders (8-9, 3.76 ERA) counters for the Diamondbacks on Wednesday, and he settled for a no-decision last time out against the Astros (five runs over six innings). The lefthander pitched against Philadelphia on April 27, losing that game after giving up six runs on 10 hits in his 5.2 innings pitched.
