Marlins send Haren to Cubs for prospects

The Cubs have acquired right-hander Dan Haren from the Marlins, MLB.com's Joe Frisaro has learned.

The Marlins will receive SS Elliot Soto and RHP Ivan Pineyro while also sending cash to the Cubs.

Haren is 7-7 with a 3.42 ERA in his first year with the Marlins. The three-time All-Star is a free agent at the end of the year.

Pineyro, 23, started 19 games at Double-A Tennesse this year, going 7-5 with a 3.69 ERA while fanning 92 over 107 1/3 innings. Pineyro sports a 1.248 WHIP in 419 2/3 innings over five Minor League seasons.

Soto, the Cubs' 15th-round pick in 2010 MLB Draft, hit .275 and scored 47 runs in 306 at-bats while playing mostly shortstop for Tennessee this season. The 25-year-old has a .632 OPS over five seasons in the Minors.
