Excerpt:

Late Friday night, sources told several media outlets, including the Chicago Tribune, that there was no deal. Earlier Friday, reports were rampant that the Cubs were acquiring Haren in exchange for reliever Carlos Marmol. With the trade no longer in effect, the Angels were more likely to pick up Haren's $15. 5 million contract option for next season, of which they have a midnight (ET) deadline on Friday to do so. If they decline, Haren will be owed a $3. 5 million buyout. Haren, a 32-year-old right-hander, fashioned a 12-13 record with a 4. 33 ERA in 30 starts last season, his final campaign of a three-year contract. A three- time All-Star, Haren has compiled a 119-97 record with a 3. 66 ERA in 296 games (286 starts) with St. Louis, Oakland, Arizona and the Angels.
