The Diamondbacks' second half started well on Friday as Brandon Pfaadt blanked the St. Louis Cardinals for seven innings and the offense jumped out to an early lead. Notably, Adrian Del Castillo delivered three hits in his return to the majors. What role should we expect Del Castillo to fill now that he's back in the big leagues?

We also dive in to what made Brandon Pfaadt so good for a second straight outing — the sweeper and cutter both come to mind — as well as the D-backs needing to get Kevin Ginkel up in the ninth despite having a 7-0 lead earlier in the game.

Finally, we discussed why Ketel Marte is on the restricted list and how much time we expect him to miss. Plus, we have significant injury updates on Shelby Miller, Gabriel Moreno and others. Join Jesse Friedman and Jack Sommers on this postgame edition of Snakes Territory!
