Milone was claimed off waivers by the Mets on Sunday.
Milone was designated for assignment by the Brewers on May 1 after posting a 6.43 ERA over 21 innings, including three starts and three relief appearances. The Mets' rotation is in shambles at the moment, which gave the team reason to claim the 30-year-old southpaw. Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports Milone is a candidate to soon replace Rafael Montero in the starting rotation.
