The Mets needed to make room for Jon Switzer on the 40 man roster, so that he could take John Maine's spot on the active roster.The Mets must have known that Maine was heading to the DL, because they out righted Emil Brown on June 10th. Brown had been designated for assignment on June 7th, he cleared waivers and accepted the demotion ( source Daily News). He is now on Buffalo's reserve roster as he waits for the three days to expire, before he can report and play for the Bison's. In other roster news, back on June 5th the Mets quietly placed Carlos Delgado on the 60-day DL to make room for Pat Misch. The Mets who always seemed to have extra roster space since the Jesus Flores fiasco, are now juggling spots like many other clubs, thanks to six players on the 15-day and two on the 60-day DL ( players can only be replaced if their on the 60-day DL). Information obtain from Mets.com transaction page.
