When Derrek Lee takes the field at Wrigley this weekend, he won't be wearing a Cubs uniform. The Braves have acquired Lee from Chicago in exchange for right-hander Robinson Lopez, right-hander Tyrelle Harris and left-hander Jeffrey Lorick.
The Cubs will pay the Braves $1.7MM, half of the $3.4MM owed to Lee between now and the end of the season. The 34-year-old, who hits free agency at season's end, has a .251/.335/.416 line in 475 plate appearances and projects to be a Type B free agent this offseason. Lee has a .939 OPS since the All-Star break, but is currently dealing with back soreness.
Lee isn't an obvious platoon partner for Troy Glaus, since both players have a history of hitting left-handers a bit better than they hit right-handers.
The match kicks off at 16:30 GMT and 17:30 BST. According to the US time, the match begins in New York time at 12:30 and California time at 09:30.
Both the clubs have been in excellent scoring form last season. Chelsea scored record 103 league goals last season and this was the first century of goals in a single season in English top-flight football since Tottenham Hotspur’s same achievement in 1962-63 season.
Similarly, West Brom’s scoring form in the last Championship season was also pretty much impressive as the Baggies scored 89 goals. They scored consistently in their last 26 Championship matches. Albion also showed their never-give-up mentality last season as they came from back to clinch 6 wins and 26 points.

SHEBOYGAN, Wis. — Dustin Johnson turned his pencil upside down and began erasing his scorecard.
He'd already given one major championship away. He never got a chance to finish this one.
Johnson was knocked out of the playoff at the PGA Championship on Sunday after he was penalized two strokes for grounding his club in a bunker he didn't even realize existed. Instead of 71 to join Martin Kaymer and Bubba Watson in the three-hole playoff, he changed his score from a 5 to a 7 and signed for a 73 to tie for fifth.
"I don't know if I can describe it," said Johnson, who showered quickly and was on his way to the parking lot before Kaymer and Watson finished their first hole. "If it was up to me, I wouldn't have thought I was in a bunker. But it's not up to me."
