The Chicago Cubs have acquired Jacob Turner from the Miami Marlins for a few Minor League relievers.

Turner was designated for assignment by the Marlins on Tuesday.

In 20 appearances this year, including 12 as a starter, the 23-year-old is 4-7 with a 5.97 ERA. He has 54 strikeouts in 78 1/3 innings.

"Just 23 years old ... has a really good arm," Theo Epstein said. "We feel like we got him at a low point of value. There is plenty of upside left with him so we're excited about that."
