The Angels recalled Quijada from Triple-A Salt Lake ahead of Monday's game against the Giants.
He'll join the Angels as a replacement on the active roster for starter Jose Quintana (shoulder), who was placed on the 10-day injured list. According to Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register, Patrick Sandoval will enter the six-man rotation in Quintana's stead, so Quijada will fill a bullpen role while he's up with the big club.
