these were used on sunday home games correct?

Yep, you got it!

As I said, he was on the 60 day DL. Jerseys are still issued to players and they still go to team events / go to games to be with the team. Sometimes they will even travel.

These jerseys were worn Sundays as part of the Padres Salute to the Armed Forces.

Well, that's not true, Baxter was on the Padres in 2011 just on the DL. He was injured on 3/28 and placed on the Disabled List (was even on the DL for opening day).

Baxter begain his Mets career when he was selected off waivers on July 22nd by the Mets; however, he was with the Padres from the beginning of the season until he began his rehab assignment. He was in the dugout with the team during his time on the DL, and wore the jersey (I saw him do it!), although he didn't take the field. I suppose "Game Worn" may have been a more appropriate inscription but I think it hardly ruins it.

do you remember the date he was on the bench? wouldnt he have to go on rehab (back to the minors) when on the DL. it had to be early in the season to have seen him on the bench and make this jersey desirable to you.

Baxter was not on he active roster for the Padres and did not appear in any game during the 2011 for the Padres, how can he have a game used jersey if he was not on the active roster or played in any games?

Re: My Game Used Jersey, Hat, Glove & Bat Collection

That is a nice Baxter jersey but having it signed "Game Used" ruins it considering he was with the Mets during the 2011 season and did not play for the Padres. That jersey is a team issued jersey not a game used jersey. Baxter only played for the Padres in 2010.
