This time of month it seems that EVERYONE is put on waivers.

Why do teams put there players on waivers when they know they will not trade said player.

Example: I believe the Rockies put in a claim on David Wright earlier this week but the Mets said a trade was not going to happen. Well why did the Mets place David Wright on the waiver wire then?

There is really no harm in putting a guy on waivers beyond a concern you will piss him off. You can see if someone will claim him and overwhelm you with a trade or take on a bad contract (a la Alex Rios) and if not, you just pull the guy back.
