A smart move by the Braves, who are trying to fend off the Phillies for the National League East crown. Lee has lost a step defensively and is no longer a major home run threat, but he's hitting well lately and is far better in the field than Troy Glaus. He should get a nice boost of energy from entering a playoff race and is a decent option in fantasy leagues.
