Bridwell was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Tuesday.
This is more of a procedural move than anything else, as Bridwell was already tabbed to start Tuesday's contest. He'll face off with Atlanta's Bartolo Colon in Anaheim, looking to carry his stellar 0.92 ERA from the minors into the big leagues with him. To make room for him on the active roster, Nolan Fontana was optioned to Triple-A.
