Mets Moves: Carlos Muniz down, John Maine returns

Carlos Muniz was optioned back to AAA New Orleans, as John Maine has been activated from the DL.

Maine will start Wednesday against the Nationals.

Muniz should stay down at triple-A, for a long time. He just doesn't seem to have it to pitch at the Major League level. He eats innings, but not effectively.
