• Twins' Parker Bridwell: Invited to Twins camp

  01/28/2020 • By RotoWire

  Bridwell agreed to a minor-league contract with the Twins on Tuesday. Bridwell made 12 starts for Triple-A Salt Lake in 2019, recording a 8.12 ERA, 1.95 WHIP and a 18.4 strikeout percentage. The 28-year-old's most productive season came in 2017 with the Angels, where he posted a 3.64 ERA and 1.20 WHIP across 20 starts. Bridwell will look to make a positive first impression on the Minnesota coaching staff during camp, but he will likely return to the minors following spring training.

• Angels' Parker Bridwell: Returns to Los Angeles

  04/10/2019 • By RotoWire

  Bridwell agreed Tuesday with the Angels on a minor-league contract, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports. Bridwell will look to get his career back on track with the organization where he previously enjoyed his most success. During his age-25 campaign in 2017, Bridwell made 20 starts for the Halos, going 10-3 with a 3.64 and 1.20 WHIP over 121 innings. Since then, he's seen limited action in both the majors and minors while battling elbow problems and looked like a shell of himself this spring even though he received a clean bill of health. The Angels will presumably send him to Triple-A Salt Lake to see if there's anything still left in the tank.

• Parker Bridwell: No longer with Oakland

  04/07/2019 • By RotoWire

  The Athletics released Bridwell, Roch Kubatko of MASN Sports reports. The right-hander never appeared for the Athletics' Triple-A affiliate at Las Vegas before receiving his walking papers. Since posting a 3.64 ERA over 121 frames with the Angels in 2017, Bridwell has dealt with a deluge of injuries, which limited him to just 34.2 low-quality innings between the majors and minors last season. He'll look to get his career back on track with a new organization.

  Bridwell was reassigned to minor-league camp Sunday, Jane Lee of MLB.com reports. Bridwell didn't fare well in his first three games of camp, posting a 31.50 ERA with two strikeouts over 2.0 innings. He saw limited time in the majors a season ago with the Angels (one start) but is unlikely to earn a spot on the Opening Day roster after getting cut from big-league camp.

• Athletics' Parker Bridwell: Abysmal outing Tuesday

  02/27/2019 • By RotoWire

  Bridwell allowed five runs on two hits and three walks while failing to record an out in Tuesday's spring game against the Angels. Bridwell began his offseason being waived by the Angels and subsequently claimed by the A's, only to again be designated for assignment. The 27-year-old will likely need a strong rebound in spring training if he is to earn a spot on the Opening Day roster.
