The deal is done, and officially announced by the Dodgers:
#Dodgers today acquired right-handed reliever Carlos Marmol and cash considerations from the @Cubs in exchange for Matt Guerrier.

Plus this nifty tidbit:
The #Dodgers also acquired international signing bonus slot No. 92 valued at $209,700 from the @Cubs as part of the deal.

Bill Shaikin spins the deal thusly:
#Dodgers just turned Guerrier into $200,000 extra to spend on international players. That's a win even if Marmol never pitches in LA.

If fixable, Carlos Marmol at his best is better than Matt Guerrier at his best, so...win?

Marmole Mania coming to the Ravine!!!
Marmol Mia!
If Carlos ends up riding the pine for the Dodgers, is he Marmol-sit?
I must admit this deal is better than I thought it would be.
@F, me too.
hopefully he gets straightened out in the minors. I never liked whack-a-Marmol
Well...shit. Not a bad deal by Colletti.
Brent approves
