Carlos Marmol's tenure with the Cubs is likely over after the club designated him for assignment.


"This is probably the best thing for both Carlos and the Cubs," Marmol's agent, Paul Kinzer, said. "But Carlos hates leaving Chicago. He's loved his time there, having been in the organization his entire career.


"I had another player who was designated for assignment a couple years ago, and that was Edwin Encarnacion, and now he's an MVP candidate."


Marmol went 2-4 with a 5.86 ERA in 31 relief appearances this season.
