Derrek Lee and cash are headed to the Braves, it was confirmed after the Cubs' 5-1 loss to San Diego at Wrigley Field. The Cubs will receive minor league pitchers Robinson Lopez, Tyrelle Harris and Jeffrey Lorick; none are considered elite prospects.
This is a big move for the Braves as they needed another bat and some experience in the lineup. One question will be, can Lee stay healthy?
