The Diamondbacks are playing their best baseball at the right time, and suddenly the National League West looks slightly more attainable.
Since the start of the season, the Dodgers have held a stranglehold on the National League West and it seemed unlikely that the divisional situation would change beyond the second spot. That was until the Arizona Diamondbacks started playing their best baseball in July, and the almighty Dodgers showed signs of wavering.
Meanwhile in Los Angeles, the Dodgers had a skid of a month, going 11-12 in July, and closing the gap in the once thought to be "secure" NL West, to only a 5.5-game lead. With injuries still sustained to super-star shortstop Mookie Betts, international phenom Yoshinobu Yamamoto, as well as a laundry list of other high-caliber contributors, the Dodgers' roster condition is far from the unbeatable juggernaut that they were on paper.
