The Mets had spent weeks trying to convince Oliver Perez that a minor league assignment would be the best thing for him—and for the team. And for weeks Perez resisted, insisting that he had no need for the minor leagues to find his way back to form. But Saturday, when the Mets needed to make a pitching roster move to make room for Jon Niese's return from the disabled list and into the rotation, Perez suddenly was placed on the disabled list with the Mets explaining that he had come to them Friday complaining of knee pain.
