The Mets traded Lara to the Marlins on Tuesday in exchange for Huascar Brazoban, Daniel Alvarez-Montes of ElExtraBase.com reports.
Lara has spent the entire season with the Mets' High-A affiliate, slashing .244/.349/.343 with 29 RBI and 13 stolen bases through his first 78 games of affiliated ball. He'll presumably report to High-A Beloit upon joining his new organization.
