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.

Mets' Wilfredo Lara: Returns from fractured hand
Rotowire
Lara (hand) has gone 0-for-6 with two walks in two games for High-A Brooklyn since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list Sunday.
Lara missed just under two weeks of Brooklyn's season due to a hamate bone fracture before making his 2024 debut. The outfielder is making his debut in affiliated ball this season after signing with the Mets as a 17-year-old out of the Dominican Republic in June 2021.
