Bridwell was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Bridwell will join the big club to offer a fresh arm out of the bullpen after Tuesday's 11-inning contest, though his stay likely won't last too long. The 25-year-old has worked primarily as a starter this season, so he should serve as a long-relief option. Michael Morin was optioned to Triple-A in a corresponding move.
